Donations help Animal Shelter and Humane Society

January 11, 2009 – 3:15 pm

“Go Orange for Animals Day” sponsored by Draughons Junior College’s Community Outreach Club raised over $250 for the local animal shelter and the Clarksville Humane Society. Christine Harrison, club President was able to purchase almost 400 pounds worth of food and litter for the animal shelter. The animal shelter was very grateful for the donation. They were down to only two 10 pound bags of dog food when Christine arrived with supplies.

The Clarksville Humane Society accrues tremendous bills in their pursuit of keeping stray animals healthy. In a one week period, they were already up to $850 in vet bills. The Community Outreach Club’s check for $125 was a welcome relief for the dedicated humane society volunteers.
