As a passion project for me, the KW United Alexandria/Kingstowne brokerage office is working with the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria (AWLA) throughout the year to help animals in need. AWLA runs the Alexandria Animal Shelter located at 4101 Eisenhower Ave. Details on the AWLA partnership are at KWUnitedAlexandria.com/alexanimals.
The first event was the Community Donation Event on Friday, October 27th on the outdoor patio at my Brokerage office (5971 Kingstowne Village Parkway, Suite 110 in Alexandria). Check out Event details at KWUnitedAlexandria.com/events.
How did we do? In a word? Fabulous.
Raised $1300 from raffles of sponsor-donated items, which pays for 7 spay/neuter procedures.
One adoption fee ($250) paid by a sponsor, Aussie Pet Mobile, via AWLA's 'Adopt It Forward' Program.
Collected $1500 of donated food, toys, crates, leashes, & treats.
And Guapo got ADOPTED!
Next up is 'Santa Paws at the Shelter' where we will deliver a toy to every animal at the Shelter.
