Statewide Shelter Open House Event
Pawsitive Alliance is partnering with animal shelters across Washington on October 13, 2012 to help increase awareness of the wonderful work being done for homeless animals at our communities’ shelters across our state.
The Open House will highlight the work of shelters across the state and the homeless animals in need that they help on a daily basis, in order to inspire community members to get more involved through adoption, volunteering, and other support.
In Washington State approximately 40,000 to 60,000 kitties, puppies, cats and dogs are euthanized each year due to lack of space. Pawsitive Alliance is working hard to bring awareness to the needs of local shelters and their homeless animals. Part of the success of the Open House Event will be driven by uniting the cause, elevating awareness in your community, and bringing attention to each shelter and each animal that they care for.
The Open House Event is a fun opportunity to bring attention to hundreds of adoptable animals, to save many lives, and give families the opportunity to welcome a new family member into their home.
Animal welfare organizations involved in this unique event include:
