Each holiday season, patrons are invited to DDFL's three facilities—the
Quebec Street Shelter in Denver, the Buddy Center in Castle Rock, and the Harmony Equine Center in Franktown—to fill
out a "paw" decoration with
a donation amount and a message, which then is displayed on the walls.
Children and adults alike often write something in honor or memory of a
special pet or horse. Donations of supplies
are also welcome to help DDFL care for the animals, and a wish list can
be found online at
ddfl.org/supplies. This is a great time for patrons to visit the shelters with their families, view the animals in DDFL's care, and teach and
share the spirit of giving.
“For those who
aren’t able to adopt, it’s a great way to make a difference in the life
of a homeless pet or horse in need,” said Bob Rohde, Dumb Friends League
president and CEO. “Any amount you can give—whether
it’s $10, $20, $30 or more—is very much appreciated and can make a big
impact for the pets and people in our community.”
This year’s goal of
$20,000 will help the Dumb Friends League care for thousands of homeless
cats, dogs, small pets and horses. Donations can be made at online at
ddfl.org/give
or by mailing a check to Dumb Friends League Paws to Give, 2080 S. Quebec St., Denver, CO 80231.
