Recently, the fifth-grade classes at SMCES held a fundraising drive for the Elk County Humane Society. The students could dress in animal-print attire, and each grade was given a specific list of shelter supplies to bring in. In lieu of that, the students could make a monetary donation.
Two visitors from the Humane Society, along with Carter (a Dalmatian mix), visited the students and accepted their donation. The school successfully raised $625, which was also matched by Straub Insurance Agency, Inc., bringing the total donation to $1,250, along with several boxes of shelter supplies!
For more information on Carter or other animals available for adoption or to donate your time or supplies, please contact the Humane Society at 814.834.3247 or visit their website at www.echumanesociety.org.
