CHHS Strong
Written By: David Stroud - Cashiers-Highlands Humane Society | Issue: 2018/12 - December
Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support during these past few weeks. Our community is always giving and generous, but in times of hardship and heartache folks on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau demonstrate the true definition of charity.
Within less than 24 hours after a tremendous gas explosion at our Canine Adoption Center in late October, donations began to arrive including financial support, supplies, and an incredible outpouring of appreciation for our staff.
To say we have been on an emotional roller coaster would be a tremendous understatement. In a four-day span we celebrated the grand opening of our new Feline Adoption Center and then suffered a tragic accident in the canine building that sent two laundry equipment contractors and one CHHS team member to the hospital. But it could have been much, much worse. There was no loss of life, human, or animal.
Through our adversity, and because of your support, we are no longer just CHHS. We are CHHS Strong. Our resolve to continue our lifesaving mission is stronger than ever. You have helped save our spirits and lift up our morale. And because of you, we will help save more lives and lift up the voices of the voiceless.
On behalf of all of us—our staff, volunteers, board of directors, and the hundreds of abandoned, abused, and neglected animals we have saved this year—we thank you for making CHHS… CHHS Strong.
To make a tax-deductible financial contribution towards our out-of-pocket expenses for repairs to our Canine Adoption Center, please mail your generous gift to: CHHS, P.O. Box 638, Cashiers, NC 28717.
To donate much-needed and greatly appreciated supplies for our shelter pets, you can drop off donations at our shelter located at 200 Gable Drive in Sapphire, one-and-a-half miles east of the Cashiers Ingles supermarket in between Cedar Creek Club and Lonesome Valley on Highway 64 East. CHHS is open 10:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. Monday through Saturday.
Thank you for your support!
