Natchitoches indefatigable FAUNA, a group of volunteers dedicated to the welfare of animals in our parish, held a “Give for Good” fundraiser at a local brewery Tuesday, May 7. Patrons were able to meet several of the over 100 dogs the group has available for adoption. Local band Jenny & Kelli provided live music for patrons to enjoy as they met the dogs.
A board on display had a photo of every animal FAUNA has up for adoption. This brought home both the continuing need for homes for the animals and the considerable expense involved in their care and upkeep until they find a forever home. Each dog occupied a square with a suggested donation amount. From dog food to shots and veterinary care and other expenses, each donation assists FAUNA in its mission to match animals in need with loving homes.
