A five-hour event on a cool Saturday afternoon at Gregory Lake in Drakesboro proved something incredible: we are not in this alone.
We saw so many familiar faces alongside so many new ones, everyone coming together for one single reason—our shared love for animals.
Today, Jax & Brutus—our two special guests from the event—joined us in the parking lot to personally thank Brenda, her team, and Jennifer as they delivered a lobby full of donations and a check for $2,700! 🐾❤️
None of this would have been possible without an idea and a venue, and these two amazing ladies provided both!
Here is how our community showed up:
$2,000 – Ms. Brenda & Gregory Lake
$480 – Vendors
$120 – Cash/Check Donations (Thank you to Tambra, and to the gentleman from Florida who missed the event but made sure to send his support anyway!)
$100 – Sticker Raffles
A huge, heartfelt thank
you to our incredible vendors who made the day so special:

To everyone who brought items to fill our trailer, thank you! To everyone who showed up and braved the cool afternoon, thank you! To everyone who made financial contributions to support our mission, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 🐾

Today, we were beyond impressed. THANK YOU ALL for standing by us and by the animals who need us most! 🐶🐱
