2007 Year at a Glance
2007 was a year of great growth and accomplishment for PACC911.
Our Adopt-a-thons have become a way of life for the rescue
community and are very well attended by both the rescue groups and the
public, now becoming more aware!
This year over 800 animals found loving homes at the adopt-a-thons
alone... but realize that because of this exposure, many animals are
seen and later adopted, not in our count!
Over the past 4 years PACC911 adopt-a-thons have helped the rescue community place over 2,500 animals into new homes!
The EMF helped 37 rescue groups with their medical bills this year and paid out over $37,000!
Over the last 4 years we have helped over 50 rescue groups and have
paid out over $135,000 aiding countless animals with this life saving
one-of-a-kind program.
PACC911 worked diligently in planning the HOPE for the Animals benefit luncheon
this year. It was a time consuming, but worthwhile project, that brought in
$200,000 for the EMF to insure its continuation for years to come! This
event was a great success and was enjoyed by a sell-out crowd of 450
attendees!
PACC911 continued its tradition by holding the 5th annual
Bowl-A-Rama for Animal Rescue which collectively raised $230,000 for the
rescue community! This money went directly to our rescue partners and
for many, is their main fundraising function... paid for and
administered by PACC911!
PACC911 held the Breaking the Chain contest in 3rd grade
classes once again... teaching young minds the importance of kindness
and compassion. This program will grow and continue.
PACC911 also created and elected an executive board to restructure and plan for the growth ahead as we move into 2008.
The rescue community is coming together more and more each year.
Because of this unity and cooperation, thousands of more animals are
being saved.
But, we still have a long road ahead, so we continue our work!
