As the people of Hay River continue to return to their homes, the Town has teamed up United Way to lend a hand in regard to people’s pets.
United Way and the Hay River Animal Welfare society are offering $25 gift cards at the town office for anyone who has built up costs over the course of the evacuation. These cards are limited to one per household.
The goal of the Hay River Animal Shelter is to try and provide foster and permanent homes to the abandoned and surrendered animals in the area. Anyone who wishes to support the group can bring their recyclable containers to the Tri R Recycling facility under the account number 874-1795. All funds from the recycled materials will go towards spaying and neutering efforts in Hay River.
