You may have noticed the “Animal Food and Supply Donation Drive” boxes in the library, the cafeteria in Beacon Hall and various other locations around campus. Housatonic Psychology Club member Susan Langer is heading this drive to bring food and supplies to the Stratford and Bridgeport Animal Shelters as well as Pet Protectors Pet Rescue Group in Fairfield.
“I am extremely passionate about the well being of our furry friends, which is why I am accepting donations after the official HCC Donation Drive is over. I will be accepting any and all donations until the last day of classes on Wednesday, December 9,” Langer says.
Donations can also be dropped at the Student Life Center, outside of the Nurse's Office, the Women's Center, and by Prof. Amico's office in BH-253. When all donations have been collected, Langer, along with other Psychology Club members, will be delivering the items personally to the shelters and rescue groups.
Shelters and rescue organizations, which give a second chance to animals, rely heavily, if not completely, on donations from the public. Any donations you make, including dog and cat food, cages and carriers, leashes, collars, blankets, comforters, and towels will be helpful and greatly appreciated. If you have any questions, comments or can be of assistance, please contact Susan Langer at susanrdh@peoplepc.com.
