Drop Off An Item From The 'Wish List'

Nicole Roberts, CVHS volunteer,  will be organizing and holding a “Stuff the Bus” fundraiser in her endeavor to help the shelter animals.  This is part of her Senior portfolio project at Coe- Brown Northwood Academy.
The inspiration for this project began last year, by senior Danielle D’Alessandro, class of 2010. The outcome was a phenomenal outpouring of kindness and generosity from the local community and small businesses throughout Northwood and the surrounding towns. In total,
D’ Alessandro with the help of her mother, Deb D’Alessandro and family, raised over $6,000 in pet products and supplies, as well as group and individual donations.
Roberts is hoping to raise even more for CVHS this year, keeping the original spirit of the event in mind by filling a school bus, which is being provided by Northwood Transportation Inc., with much needed items from the humane society’s “wish list”.Items include canned food, kitty litter, dry kitten/cat food, dog toys, trash bags, and paper towels. Many of the “wish list” items will be on display at Heritage True Value Hardware at discounted prices up to, and on the day of the event. For the society’s complete “wish list” www.cvhsonline.org.
In addition, monetary donations will also be accepted and raffles for items donated by local businesses will occur throughout the day. Many of the local small businesses will also be challenged to make a group donation and then be entered into a raffle from Dunkin’ Donuts for coffee and doughnuts for the office.
