Throughout December we took part in the Pets Foundation Santa Paws appeal at our partnered Pets at Home stores – Tiverton and Weymouth.
This is an annual appeal run by Pets Foundation where we commit to spending 24 hours in each of our partnered stores as well as posting about the initiative on our social media pages. In return, we receive 50% of the donations taken at the store tills, with the remaining funds going towards the Pet Foundation grant programme. We have also been lucky recipients of grants from the scheme in the past.
We now know how much will will receive from each store…
£2,199.46 from Tiverton and £2,085.88 from Weymouth – an amazing total of £4285.34!
This just leaves us to say a few HUGE thank you’s….
- To Pets Foundation for this wonderful scheme raising so much money for charitable causes.
- To both Tiverton and Weymouth Pets at Home stores for making our volunteers feel so welcome and working so hard to encourage donations at the tills.
- To our wonderful human and hound volunteers who gave up their valuable time just before Christmas to represent Forever Hounds Trust in both stores…we couldn’t have done it without you wonderful people.
- To the customers of both stores who donated so generously!
Every single person mentioned really has made a life-changing difference to hounds in need.
