| WHAT WE DO Hero is a 501(c)3, nonprofit organization
operated by volunteers and financed solely through donations from the
community.
Hero works to increase the level of awareness of the public in general, regarding the need to spay or neuter animals. We provide financial assistance for spaying or neutering of pets for low-income families. We promote awareness of adopting pets from local area shelters throughout the community. My name is Nancy Turner and
I am a volunteer for the Emporia Animal Shelter. I have had the pleasure
of working with Shelia Morgan and getting hundreds of cats and dogs spayed
or neutered for two years now. I don't know what we would do without this
referral source. Because of Richmond Hero's we are eliminating the over
population of the animals in Emporia, Va. The only animals that has been
euthanized are the ones that were very ill or vicious. The numbers of
euthanization have dropped approximately 90% less than before we began
working with Richmond Hero's. This just shows that with all the groups
working together, we can make a difference in the lives of our animals.
They are healther, happier and so are we. Thank you so much, without you
there would be hundreds of animals left without proper care and for whatever
life brings there way.
Sincerely, Nancy Turner Animal Shelter Volunteer Emporia, Va |
