The Local Lodge would like to thank everyone who donated to the Pet Food Drive we had in partnership with the Jacksonville Animal Shelter. For three weeks, Members contributed to boxes set out in each of the buildings that Members worked in. Friday, August 5th was the last collection day. In total, the Lodge collected and delivered 61 bags of pet food, 75 cans of pet food, and 27 towels, blankets and pet beds. The shelter was very appreciative of all the items they received.
Thanks again to all the Members who contributed, and to Sister Julie Snyder for coordinating the effort.
