Giving Tuesday Update!

November 30, 2016/in News /by Dave O

Second Chance received over $5,760 on Giving Tuesday–THANK YOU!

We shared the story of Winston and Wilson–two brothers found stuffed in a single carrier and tucked under a pile of garbage–and you opened your hearts and your wallets for more animals to find homes. After you surpassed our goal of $2,500, we doubled it and you surpassed that goal, too! We are so grateful to you, our partners in rescue, for your continued outpouring of love and support.

Psst–Did you miss Giving Tuesday? Fear not: you can still contribute to our rescue efforts–and learn about the special cats who, once one person’s trash, became a whole family’s treasure. Your gift today will help warm an animal’s life with love this winter!
