donate an endless amount of money to the “Pennies for Pets” fundraiser! Students can vote
for their favorite dog or cat from the Central Pa Humane Society as they are pictured on jars
during each lunch period and before school. Every coin donated will go straight to helping
the humane society with the endless costs of our furry friends. If you choose to donate $1 or
more, write your name on a paw to be hung on the bridge! As the totals add up, see how
much your pet of choice earns using the daily total meter before a check is presented to our
local Humane Society! This is the time to donate to a sweet cause and make a pet’s life even
more special. Don’t forget your donations all this week as you change lives one paw at a
time!
