Week 23 - Rescued Critters Food Drive

Hi Folks,

Sundays are Becoming and Exercise in Exercise ... and That's a Good Thing


The cat food cans, stacked 20 high on the right, was the first indication that we collected a whole lot of pet food Sunday. Those cans will feed 20 cats for one day. Then there were cold weather garments, including an aviation jacket and booties for a Cody-sized dog. Lastly, there was enough cash to buy one 52 lb. bag of Purina Dog Chow “with real chicken” for $21.98.

All that pet food weighed 92.3 lbs. In addition, we donated $27.76 in cash and one check.

Haley was disappointed the she could not get up on the table for the photo although she tried a number of runs up the plank. Cody saw the futility from the start and just sat there on the right.

Spoiler Alert
Encouraged by your consistent and generous donations to PACC every Sunday, folks are beginning to pay attention to how we’re building our Rescued Critters Food Drive. Next week you will read about a meeting schedule for today, February 12th in the Mayor’s office.

In attendance will be Mayor Rothschild, of course, and Executive Director, Kristen Auerbach, and Field Sergeant Bennett Simonsen of the Pima Animal Care Center.

The agenda will focus on a program called “One Cent for One Minute of Community Service.” a kid donation program that mirrors how business executives support their favorite charities. In this age of parity, it is never too early to teach kids to emulate community-minded business leaders who have a very strong sense of service.

See you Sunday,

Peter
