| RB Hooters Girls Love SNAP! |
It’s been a minute since I’ve posted an update. While I’m not making as much progress as I’d hoped, some good strides have been made.
We had the Hooters Neuters Rancho Bernardo event. A small but mighty group of supporters came out.

Paul went back to work at Unleashed by Petco. In July they had a month where the donations collected at the store could go to a local Spay & Neuter organization, and he got his store to give to SNAP. Dorell from SNAP was also able to contact some other Petco’s and get their donations as well. Paul’s store alone raised over $1100 dollars that month. In addition, he now gets to decide where product donations go, and who does adoption events, and he has included SNAP in both of these things, which will help out Carla, who is SNAP Adopt-a-pet. She does so much for these animals, I’m glad to know we have found a way to help her help them.
Last night was the second Comedy Show benefit. As always I was touched to see my faithfully supporting friends there, like Julie & Bob, Amber & Michael, the Toisters... you guys always come through! Paul’s friend Robin even drove out from Arizona with donations from her work! So far I have $800 in my grubby paws from last night’s show – and a couple other checks promised to be on the way. I don’t think I’ll make the $14,000 goal by the end of the year, but I will keep going until I do! And for someone who considers themselves a HORRIBLE fundraiser, I’ve done some good already! In addition, we are fostering Dude, the little guy who’s been in foster for 2 years. Hopefully we will find him a good home, or perhaps he will blend into the Herrmann pack. We’ll see – he’s a good boy!
Still to come this year… Hooters Neuters in Oceanside and another Comedy Benefit.
