Thank you to everyone who helped us make Paws in the Park 2014, presented by Grande Laundry Place, one for the record books!
The generosity of our community, 63 sponsors and vendors and more than 1,000 attendees helped us raise $106,000 for homeless and abandoned animals.
Thank you for helping to make this year’s event a success. We appreciate your fundraising efforts, donations, encouragement of local businesses to support us, your volunteer efforts, your dedication to EHS, and the time you took to join us for a morning of fun with fellow animal lovers. It was a fantastic event, and it’s certainly a community effort to make it happen.
