A special thank you to Pam Brunk, our benevolent volunteer and talented costume designer, who was solely responsible for creating the adorable costumes for ALL of our foster pups , making them look like the shining stars that they are.
We also want to give a sincere thank you to all of the Junior Volunteers who participated in our first ever pilot program for teenage event volunteers. We're truly grateful for their time and contribution. We hope to continue the 'Junior Volunteers' program for future events.
We are also thankful to everyone who donated to our Amplify Austin campaign. As it was our first year participating, we set a modest goal of $2000 for our fundraising, and our donors helped us exceed that goal by almost $500. That amount helps us with surgical expenses, which are higher in Austin than in our other metro areas, so we appreciate every dollar! Look for a bigger and better Amplify Austin next year, and THANK YOU to everyone who donated.
