Thanks to the Bissell Pet Foundation

bissel donationThanks to the Bissell Pet Foundation, Philadoptables was awarded a grant to purchase much needed medical supplies for the clinic at Animal Care and Control in Philadelphia. Our first drop off included many supplies desperately needed for the feral/community  cat clinics – cautery pens, live traps, penicillin, wildlife gloves, eye ointment, heating pads and wet cat food. Stay tuned as we have more goodies making their way to the shelter!

Thank You For A Great Year

2013 Year in Revew
In reflecting over our very busy year we would put together a list of all of the things Philadoptables has accomplished in 2013 which answers the question “Why are we so tired?”

-Volunteer appreciation breakfast at the shelter
-Major sponsor of the shelter’s new laundry room
-Love Potions mix and mingle fundraiser
-5 appearances on Eye Opener PHL 17
-Paint Your Pet fundraiser

-Sponsored advertising for these on-site adoption events: Spring Break, Be Mine, St. Pitty & Kitty’s Day
-Board Members volunteered at All Paws on Deck weekend long adoption event
-TV appearance with Carol Erickson

-Sudsy Sunday dog wash at Pet Valu

-All year long- collected and donated over 150,000lbs of cat and dog food to the shelter’s pet food pantry, foster parents, and rescue partners.
-Manned a giant balloon in the 6ABC Thanksgiving Day parade
-Participated in Camp Out for Hunger- a week long pet food drive with The Preston & Steve Show
We may be  forgetting some things but as we  look at this list of accomplishments, done by people with full-time jobs, our own pets, all active volunteers at the shelter we support (Philadelphia’s animal control shelter- ACCT Philly), we are blown away and know we never could have done it alone. You are the fuel for our fire.
Now we are off to take a quick nap and get back out there because 2014 is going to be bigger and better and we can’t do it without you!
On behalf of the Board of Directors for Philadoptables – John, Christa, Jeanie, Lori, Marta, and Michelle- and the homeless shelter animals of Philadelphia, we THANK YOU for your support.
xo,
Philadoptables

WMMR’s Camp Out For Hunger 2013

Fotor12127489

We were once again thrilled to be invited by The Preston and Steve Show to participate in WMMR’s Camp Out For Hunger! The week long event was held at Xfinity Live in Philadelphia and as in years past, our supporters and fans didn’t let us down!

It’s such an honor to be involved in this huge event which allows us to stock the food pantry at the city’s intake shelter. Without the donations we receive through Camp Out For Hunger, we would not be able to support our rescue partners or help feed the pets of the city’s neediest residents. The donations we receive allow us to help families who might not otherwise be able to keep their pets fed and help to lower surrender rates due to the costs associated with having pets.

This year, thanks to our fans and supporters, donations increased tremendously at our off-site drop-off locations and thanks to Pet Valu and Pet360, we literally saw food come in by the truckload! We couldn’t do this without the support of each and every one of you and are especially grateful for our corporate partners.

Thank you so much to everyone at The Preston and Steve Show for having us. We look forward to Camp Out For Hunger every year and seeing so many people come out and support Philly’s homeless pets. We value your support of our mission more than you could ever know!
