COLDWELL BANKER/FIRST REALTY IN VILLA RICA

Virginia Westlake and the folks at Coldwell Banker/First Reality in Villa Rica offered to sponsor CCHS at their semi-annual 50-family yard sale on September 13. The proceeds from the renting of yard sale spaces were donated to the Humane Society, and we were invited to have our own "white elephant" table as well as a refreshment booth as fund raisers. Thank you very much!

VILLA RICA GOLD RUSH VOLUNTEERS

Many thanks to Jo Ann and Peter Burns for bringing their beautiful therapy dogs, Pilot and C.W., and to Kim Ludeman from Kritter Korral for bringing her three pygmy goats, Nicole, Bailey and Oreo. In addition, to help us raise funds, Bark Avenue Pet Salon donated a free grooming/shampoo; Four Paws Resort donated a 2-night boarding for some lucky dog; Becky Mistretta donated a 5 x 7 pet portrait; and the West Georgia Spay/Neuter Clinic donated a free male cat neuter. Our special thanks for those great donations!

SARAH'S BAKE SALE

Sarah Landman held her 6th bake sale to benefit CCHS and Carroll County's homeless animals on Saturday, June 7, from 11:00 till 2:00.

Donors to our Bluegrass Festival Booth

The following friends helped us raise funds for CCHS programs by donating items for our booth at the 18th Annual Bluegrass Festival at Gold Dust Park on Saturday, April 26:

Emmylou Harris The Suggins Brothers Keary Crisp and Ballew's Music in Carrollton GA The University of West Georgia's Public History Department The Steep Canyon Rangers

We are very grateful for their support!

Anna Wolford and her friends

Anna recently had a birthday party and asked all her friends to donate to CCHS instead of giving her a gift. Anna's thoughtfulness resulted in a gift of $320 to the CCHS foster program. This money will be used to pay for medication, spay and neuter surgery, and vaccines for animals that CCHS rescues from the county shelter. Many thanks to Anna and her friends and a belated "Happy Birthday, Anna!"

Georgia Renaissance Festival 2007

The Georgia Renaissance Festival donated 500 VIP complimentary tickets to the Carroll County Humane Society to use as an extra incentive for people to make appointments to have their animals spayed and neutered at the new West Georgia Spay Neuter Clinic. This gift is valued at $8,475.

Bruster's Old-Fashioned Ice Cream & Yogurt

Bruster's at 1202 South Park Street in Carrollton adopted CCHS during the month of June 2004 - collecting donations from their customers and hosting a foster dog adoption night.

Wal-Mart of Villa Rica

Wal-Mart on Highway 61 has donated bonus grants to the Carroll County Humane Society for five years in a row.

The Warren P. and Ava F. Sewell Foundation

The Sewell Foundation has helped us immeasureably in our efforts to promote the spaying and neutering of companion animals to combat the problem of pet overpopulation. Thanks to their generosity, CCHS was able to initiate the Sewell Foundation Low-Cost Spay/Neuter Certificate Program in 1999 and to carry on the program till the present time.

PetSmart Corporation and the Douglasville and Newnan PetSmarts

PetSmart has provided the Society with many opportunities to raise money for our projects and programs. In addition, they offer space in their store on Sundays for CCHS foster animals to meet and often find a new home with caring individuals and families.

The Animal Jam Bands and Coordinators

The Humane Society is very grateful to the following bands who came together to plan and carry out the Animal Jam concert at the Corner Cafe on February 16, 2002: Dysfunktion Junktion, Axis II, and The Fiascos. We also thank Wal-Mart in Villa Rica for matching the amount of money that we collected at "The Jam".

Cathy Meigs

Cathy donated a handmade quilt and pillow shams with a dog and cat design for the Humane Society to raffle as a fund raiser in December 2001.

Molly Grizzard and Publix Supermarkets

The Society received a donation from Publix because Molly Grizzard, a young volunteer at the Shelter, chose The Carroll County Humane Society as the charity to receive matching funds in a contest she won.

The Zachariah Foundation

The Zachariah Foundation chose CCHS as one of the recipients of its fund-raising activities in 2000. Through their contribution, CCHS held a conference in May 2001 entitled FirstStrike. This educational program helped make local law enforcement and social service groups aware of the connection between animal abuse and child and domestic abuse.
