Have you ever considered holding an event of your own to raise much-needed funds for PAWS?

Some recent examples of this are:

Lindsay Lights - Special thanks to The Lindsay Family of Richmond Hill who so generously contributed a portion of the donations from their spectacular annual Holiday Light Show again in 2007. Be sure to visit their website at www.lindsaylights.com for complete information on this unique experience. The Lindsay Family raised $4,500 for PAWS!

Softchoice - At their annual Holiday Party, Softchoice raises money for local charities. We are very grateful that PAWS was their “charity of choice” in 2007. Thanks Softchoice! www.softchoice.com Softchoice raised $4,525 for PAWS!

Justin - this selfless young man who turned 13 recently, decided that, rather than enjoy Birthday gifts that he may not need or use, he would request donations to help homeless animals. You guessed it - PAWS was the chosen recipient. Thank you Justin (and his Mom, Julie) for your support. PAWS Volunteers are thrilled that people of all ages are becoming more and more involved in their communities by Volunteering and supporting causes that are close to their hearts. Justin raised $500 for PAWS! Smile - Philanthropy is contagious!
