Wal-Mart Supports Local Animal Shelter

By Beverly Pack

During the month of December 2009, employees and customers of the Louisa Wal-Mart showed their support for the Lawrence County Humane Society Animal Shelter by donating much needed items for the dogs and cats in their care. The program, coordinated by Melissa Clark (Merchandise Sales Supervisor), was promoted in the store by flyers posted in the Pet Department encouraging customers to purchase items to place in the donation box at the front of the store.

Employees also participated in promoting this program by speaking with customers and informing them of the needs of our local animal shelter. Among the items donated were dog and cat food, cat litter, pet treats, pet toys, and various cleaning supplies.

The Lawrence County Humane Society extends their sincere thanks to the staff, employees, and customers of Wal-Mart for their generous support for the Animal Shelter. For information about the Lawrence County Humane Society Animal Shelter call the shelter at 606-673-4509 during the hours
Mon - Fri 9:00 am - 3:00 pm and Sat - Sun 2:00 - 3:30 pm.
