Thanks to All of Our Volunteers and Supporters
As we look forward to the beginning of the holiday
season and reflect on things for which we give thanks, everyone involved with
Hill County Paw Pals would like to thank each of our supporters and volunteers
for embracing our organization’s goals in bringing correction to the horrific
state of pet overpopulation in our county and communities.
Each of your contributions, whether in
your valued volunteered time or dollars, is highly appreciated and will
contribute toward our county’s much needed animal shelter—serving as a harbor
for unwanted companion animals while providing a nucleus for proactive animal
control. We also thank all the citizens
in
Hill
County who have enthusiastically supported us in so many ways. We know you have choices when making
donations to non-profit organizations and it means so much that you put your
trust in Hill County Paw Pals to bring change to our community. The overwhelming support of this community
was visualized in the generous support of our citizens at our recent annual
garage sale. We will not disappoint you.
Each of
you is to be commended for your civic duty and concern for all creatures in our
county. We and our community salute your
actions, many unrecognized, that have already resulted in the saving of hundreds
and the prevention of thousands of unwanted companion animals.
We say thank you to all who have fostered
unwanted animals in their homes, to those who have transported animals many
miles on their way to a loving forever home, those who have spent hours on the
phone searching for rescue groups to take an adoptable dog, those who labor
monthly at the low cost spay/neuter clinic, those who visit the impoundment
facility and witness the compelling sadness and fear in the eyes of dogs living
there, and the list goes on for all who work behind the scenes to fulfill the
mission of Paw Pals. The compassion and
kindness demonstrated by members of this community is beyond description. While a few irresponsible people are the
reason for pet overpopulation, the good in this community makes the fight to
overcome pet overpopulation attainable. Your
volunteerism and support can be further defined with these quotes: “No person was ever
honored for what he received. Honor is
given by what he gave.”—Calvin Coolidge. You make a living by what
you get, but you make a life by what you give.”—Winston
Churchill. Again, our community remains thankful for
your volunteerism and support and we wish everyone a happy and safe holiday
season. For more information
