Animals
In Crisis
Winter-Spring 2009
Since 1966
the
Delta Humane Society & S.P.C.A., a No-Kill Shelter,
has relied strictly on public donations.
Calls for
help come in daily... "Please help us, we have
lost our home and there is nowhere safe to leave our
family pets..." We have been taking in as many
animals as possible when space is available. However,
to continue to operate, at the very least, we will be
forced to drastically cut our hours of operation. Unfortunately,
this will cause fewer adoptions and a much longer wait
to bring in homeless pets.
In order
to overcome this crisis, we are seeking 500 committed
donors to contribute $500 each. This will allow for
our facility to continue our un-daunting mission to
provide the very best and necessary services for misplaced
pets.
Please send
your contribution to:
