VETTING CRISIS IS OVER!
UPDATE 3/25:
Please crosspost widely
Mason County Animal Shelter
http://masoncounty.petfinder.comTHE MCASGI HFA VET BILL IS PAID IN FULL!
Email received from HFA 3/25: I have notified the board of this final contribution and they are thrilled, as am I! Our president has told me to let you know that this account is considered paid in full! Thank you so much for all of your efforts. I know this debt was never yours to begin with, and the work you have put into this matter is awesome. You all really can move mountains!!! Thanks
Our heartfelt thanks go out to the many supporters who contributed toward paying down the debt that was left behind by the group that was running the shelter last year. Especially to that final sponsor who made a lump sum payment that has finally allowed us to put this behind us for good!
Thank you also to the staff at HFA who never turned away any animals that needed vetting despite being left with an unpaid bill of over $8,000 last summer, and for forgiving part of this debt at the end of this lengthy process. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
We can now reopen our sponsorship program for new animals coming into the shelter.
UPDATE 3/24:
A generous sponsor has donated enough to meet the goal! We are now waiting for HFA to confirm that this debt is now considered paid in full.
UPDATE 3/21: ONLY $835 to go!
We have a deadline of 4/30 to meet this goal. If met, then HFA will write off over $1,000 of this debt!
January 2008:
We urgently need your help, now more than ever before!
We have just been notified by Help For Animals that the old debt from the former group that ran the shelter MUST be paid off in the next four months or they will suspend vetting service! Please DO NOT sponsor any of our current dogs at this time. Instead, please send a contribution toward paying down the old bill (current balance is $5,125)! THANK YOU!
Please visit our website to donate. No amount is too small!
