Community wide collection planned to benefit Delaware County SPCA
Residents are urged to participate in week-long event.
(Wayne, October 24, 2011) – It’s not always easy to make a difference in your community. For one week it will not only be easy but convenient as well. Beginning November 7, 2011 Rodgers Travel Global Journeys will be hosting what they hope to be a community-wide week-long collection to benefit the Delaware County SPCA.
The Delaware County SPCA is a 501c3 non-profit, charitable organization registered with the Pennsylvania Department of State. Established in 1911 as the Delaware County Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, the group has worked for 100 years as a dedicated force for the protection and welfare of animals. From the beginnings of providing watering troughs to today’s organization complete with a Humane Investigation operation receiving 1,000 complaint calls per year; the group is supported almost entirely by private donations. When the Delco SPCA cannot provide care because of a lack of provisions it can become an unfortunate situation.
The SPCA has been working diligently to protect Delaware County’s animals and now you can help. Items collected during the event will be donated to Delco SPCA in the name of the community. A wish list for donations can be found by visiting www.delcospca.org/donations. The list includes items such as peanut butter, newspaper, rice and grooming supplies. The community is encouraged to look over the list as some items can be found in their homes. Items like canned chicken broth and empty plastic Easter eggs- often overlooked in homes- would be of great benefit to the organization.
If you would like to participate in this collection you can bring your items to 512 W. Lancaster Ave (Intersection of Lancaster Ave and Ghallager Ave) Suite C. The collection will run November 7-12, 2011. Monday through Friday drop offs will be accepted from 9am until 5pm and Saturday drops will be accepted from 11am until 2pm. For more information on the collection please call Shannon Henson at (610) 964-1775 x206. To learn more about the Delaware County SPCA visit www.delcospca.org or call (610) 566-1370.
