Past Fundraisers
Burlington Post Office - thanks to the volunteers and staff at the Post Office for making this event a huge success. We raised over $200 in donations and met some great potential adoptive families for the pets in our care. The hospitality and friendly atmosphere helped make this event so great. Don't forget to ask for the new pet stamp next time you are there!
Wells Fargo Dealer Services - Kent WA - held a bake sale and raised $430! Way to go!
(This is Tater, he was adopted from the puppy mill last year.)
Washington Elementary School "Pet Program" raises pennies for pups every
year. The Kindergarden class and parents come to learn about caring for pets
and presented SPOT with a check for the donations they collected.
"Spot" (the dog) and friends joined the class for the event. Thanks kids!
