you helped save the Hillside SPCA!

According to a statement on their web site, owing to a generous outpouring from the public, the Hillside SPCA is officially out of financial danger.

I want to thank everyone who signed the petition and who donated money. You really helped make a huge difference in these animals' lives. You all rock.

That is fantastic news!!

Kudos to you for sharing the information and getting all of us involved. It absolutely proves that it doesn't take much to make a difference, usually just using our voice to express what we really want. It's inspiring to see that it really does work and makes me know that every little thing I do CAN and DOES make a difference and to keep on keepin on!

Awesome- I was really moved by your post and donated the little I could afford, and hearing that the shelter can keep going now feels like a big relief! Thank you for your compassion.

Giving to charity is always so fulfilling but when the need is great and the organization on the smaller scale, you really get to see the difference and it is so wonderful.

As I told all of my friends who had donated- we saved 300 animals today- yay!!!

March 27 - It worked! Thanks to all of you who donated to Hillside. And thanks to the Urban Vegan, my best friend from high school, for getting the word out to you! They've gotten enough to stave off the crisis.

300 tails are wagging in your honor! (OK, maybe only the 100 dogs. Deep down, the 200 cats are thrilled but they're just too cool to show it!)

I am so happy to hear that. Animals can not speak for themselves and need all the help they can get.

Give yourself the biggest pat on the back for rallying all the support! Well done. :)
