A huge thank you to Auntie Sam and Uncle Casey. πͺ½π
On Saturday, Auntie Sam came across a church rummage sale in Hillsboro and learned they were looking for someone to take the leftover items when the sale ended.
With very little notice, she reached out, made arrangements, and helped create an incredible opportunity for our upcoming 6th Annual Garage Sale Fundraiser.
Then she and Uncle Casey did not stop there.
They met up, sorted, selected, loaded, boxed, and hauled items so those donations could make their way to the sanctuary fundraiser.
The photo in this post? That's the truck and horse trailer they filled. π
What you're looking at is more than a load of "stuff." It's future veterinary care. Hay. Feed. Medications. Utilities. The everyday needs of the animals transformed from donated items into tangible support.
It may not be the glamorous side of sanctuary work, but every box loaded, every item sorted, and every volunteer hour donated helps generate the funds that keep bowls filled, hay stocked, lights on, and medical care available for the animals who call the sanctuary home.
This is what community looks like.
Not just donating money, but donating time, energy, skills, trucks, trailers, strong backs, and willing hearts.
Thank you both for giving your Saturday to help The Angels. We couldn't do this work without volunteers who see an opportunity to help and simply jump in.
π Want to help with our 6th Annual Garage Sale Fundraiser?
We still need volunteers to help collect donations, sort items, organize, price, box, move, and prepare for the sale. Whether you can help for an hour, an afternoon, or throughout the event, we'd love to have you join us.
Send us a message or text Daddy Jeff at 360-600-7029 if you'd like to be part of the team.
Because rescue is a moment. Sanctuary is a lifetime. πͺ½
I like adding the truck-and-trailer reference because it gives the audience a visual scale. People see a trailer full of rummage sale leftovers; you help them see hay, medications, and full food bowls instead. That's a very AWMW way to tell the story. ππͺ½
