**** Bide Awhile
Hello everyone,
We wanted to check in and share everything that we are doing to keep our shelter, staff, and animals safe during this time.
We announced last week that we are closed to the public and volunteers, aside from animal surrenders and picking up food from our pet food pantry. This is by appointment only and we will be unable to answer the door to those who don’t have an appointment.
Effective today, we will no longer be able to accept the donation of supplies until further notice. This is in an effort to keep COVID-19 out of our shelter. Thank you to everyone who has kindly reached out looking to offer support in this way.
If you are wanting to support us during this time, we ask that you consider making a monetary donation. Due to the virus, we have postponed some of our biggest fundraisers of the year. A monetary donation would help us to sustain our operations until we can safely hold these events.
You can make a donation over the phone at 902-469-9578 or online: http://bideawhile.org/1821-2/
We are doing everything we can to maintain the health and wellness of our staff, so they can continue to provide care for the animals. We would like to thank them for their dedication and continuing to put the animals first during this time of uncertainty. We would also like to thank the public for the incredible outpouring of support we have seen within the past week. Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts!
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at shelter@bideawhile.org or 902-469-9578.
