Recycle for Rescue - Update

Recycle4Rescue
With the recycling efforts of the past 6 weeks (and especially all of Carol's contributions to the cause!), we were able to take enough recycling to the center to actually save the life of one dog!

That means for all of the plastic, glass and aluminum cans that WERE going in the trash for the past 6 weeks but were brought to us, a little wee's one life was saved... Rexa was spayed, her vaccines were updated, she received her rabies shot and was microchipped... with the $171.26 we received back from turning it all in!

Simply because folks took the time to collect their clean recycling and drop it off at the rescue shop, we were all (as a community) able to save that dog's life!... Pretty amazing, huh?   Almost like the Phoenix rising up out of the ashes...

So next time you get ready to throw that plastic water bottle into a trash can, think about a face or two that peers out at you from our website... It was from your recycling efforts we were able to take in this owner surrender, get her up to adoptable standards and find her a furever home!



You can bring your clean recyclables to the rescue shop at 1555 Simi Town Center, #587, Simi Valley, CA seven days a week.  Six of those days, my white pick-up quad dually will be parked in the front of the rescue shop and you can simply leave them in the back of the truck.  On Sundays, just let them know at the rescue shop you have recycling and then drive it around to the back.  If you need a receipt for your recycling, you will need to come into the rescue shop though!

THANK YOU FOR THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX AND RECYCLING FOR RESCUE!
