Non-Monetary Drop-off Point - Mecklenburg, NC

Project HALO is in the process of coordinating a trip to the flood
ravaged areas of MS, AL and LA to help rescue the displaced and
injured animals. They did this when Floyd hit our coast and they are
helping out again.

The NC Director of EARS (Emergency Animal Rescue Services) said she
expects the group of volunteers to be deployed as early as Monday
(9/5).

The people in hurricane disaster area of course take priority and
there are many great organizations heading out to do their part to
save lives and make people more comfortable. The needs of many
thousands of animals is often the last concern and they need our
help too.

If any of you have a good relationship with your vet, see if they
will donate some medical supplies. They need everything to set up a
triage area for the injured animals.

As always, Project HALO will gladly supply a donation receipt for
any and all donations. If you can't get supplies to them then you're
welcome to make a monetary donation via Paypal on our homepage of
the website at www.projecthalo.petfinder.com

Project HALO can make tax-free purchases at Petsmart. Every penny
saved counts! HALO wants to get the Bow Wow Bus loaded to the hilt
with supplies for these innocent victims. So many are left behind
and forgotten when a disaster like this hits. It's our
responsibility as an animal loving community to help. Project HALO
