Thank You, Maddie’s Fund!
On June 4th and 5th, we participated in the second annual Maddie’s Adop-tathon. Maddie’s Fund, a charitable foundation, helps Contra Costa and Alameda County Rescue Groups by contributing $500 for every dog or cat adopted , and the adopter takes home his/her new pet without paying an adoption fee. For animals over the age of seven and with certain medical con-ditions, the amount H.A.R.P. received was $1,000. For any animal with a desig-nated medical con-dition, and over the age of seven, Mad-die’s Fund gave H.A.R.P. $1,500.
Both of our adoption partners, PetsMart and Pet Food Ex-press, gave tremen-dous assistance by providing extra room for the many animals to be adopted and support for the H.A.R.P. vol-unteers. H.A.R.P. adopted out 19 dogs and 38 cats. The money generated by these Maddie’s Fund adoptions will allow us to continue pro-viding veterinary care, food, and other expenses required to assist homeless animals in East Con-tra Costa County.
