How can my family and friends help?

by

Many times we get asked what can someone in the community do to help the shelter. There are so many ways and a lot of them don’t even cost money.

➠ Gather up all your newspapers for the cats
➠ Ask your family and friends to keep all their old blankets and towels
➠ Re-gift any presents they were given to you and you didn’t want. (it must never be opened or used)
➠ Do some Spring cleaning and donate all the items they no longer need (they must work and be clean please)
➠ Save their recyclables. (either donate them directly at the Green Depot or drop off clean ones at the shelter)
➠ Keep a little jar on your table for spare change.
➠ You can also put Canadian Tire money into that jar as well.

Do you have any other idea on how you and your family can help? Let us know on facebook.

Re-Gifting

by

Shhhh!!! Have you received a gift for Christmas or any other time of the year and you simply don’t want it or have one already and don’t know what to do with it? Why not re-gift it. The SPCA uses these gifts for gift baskets, gift bags or items for our online auctions. You can easily drop off your gifts at the shelter anytime from 12-2 daily or give Lisa a call at 891-1003. If you drop off your item at the shelter please include a note that it is new and it is for the auction and mark Lisa’s name on it. If not, it ends up in the second-hand bin.

All items for the auction needs to be brand new, not opened and never used.
