Folks from Warren-Washington ARC said “thanks” to the communities that support ARC by collecting and delivering pet food and supplies to the SPCA.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
WWARC is saying thank you to the Warren and Washington Counties residents by using the strength of their 350 employees and over 25 facilities sprinkled across our communities by asking their employees to assist in the collection of pet food and supplies.<\/p>\n
\nThis will benefit pet owners who may need assistance in feeding their four-legged best friends and the effort is being done in cooperation with the SPCA of Upstate New York.<\/p>\n
The effort is part of WWARC’s NYSARC Gives Back President’s Project Week that took place March 25-March 31.\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\nNYSARC, Inc. is WWARC’s parent company which has 49 local Chapters throughout New York State. All chapters are initiating similar efforts throughout the state. WWARC Chapter President and volunteer, Anne Marie Lockhart said “As we celebrate our 50th Anniversary of serving and being supported by our community, this is a small way that we can say “thank you” by helping another local worthwhile not-for-profit agency like the SPCA”.<\/p>\n
Warren and Washington Counties ARC provides services, advocates for and offers opportunities to over 300 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families, enabling them to realize their full potential in our communities.<\/p>\n
Cathy Cloutier, Executive Director of SPCA of Upstate NY, stated that the call could not have come at a better time to help. “I don’t think that many people think that tough economic times can affect our pet population but it really does. WWARC’s offer to help is coming at a time when donated supplies are running low”.<\/p>\n
WWARC collected supplies at their 26 facilities throughout Warren and Washington Counties as well as the just opened Petco on Upper Glen Street.<\/p>\n
The Society for the Prevention of cruelty to Animals of Upstate New York, Inc. is committed to the prevention of torture or cruelty, to the protection of all animals, and to promotion of responsible pet ownership.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
