"Accepting donations during normal business
hours" |
As an effort to provide additional revenue, Pickens
Animal Rescue (PAR) has recently opened a used furniture and household item
thrift store in Jasper. By giving the community a place to take their tax-deductible
donations, the proceeds directly impact the health and future of our unwanted Pickens
County pets and the stability of this
productive and successful rescue group. The volunteers working at the Rescued
Furniture Store will be able to sell the donated items, providing additional
income to aid in caring for the 150 dogs and cats in their daily care. The
budget for PAR continues to climb each year as the demand for their service grows;
unfortunately, personal donations are down due to economic changes in our
society making PAR think of alternative ways to increase their resources. The PAR 2008 budget is $225,000.00 with all
monies going back into caring for the stray and abused cats and dogs of Pickens
County.
The Rescued Furniture Store will feature sofas,
chairs, desks, lamps, artwork, small household appliances, rugs, decorative
items for the home as well as a large display of animal related t-shirts, magnets
and jewelry. All donors will receive a receipt at the time the
items are brought into the store. Merchandise changes daily so they welcome
visitors to come by often and please remember Pickens Animal Rescue when you
have items to donate!
