30 - Orphans of the Storm

Toni and Emily are talking with Bethann, who runs, and manages Orphans of the Storm. Orphans is a no kill animal shelter in Kittaning, PA. The builidng is located in a flood zone, that has caused devastation to their building, and animals in years past. They have acquired land above the flood zone and are raising over 4 million dollars to build out the safe and new facility of their dream. Toni and Emily have been volunteering, and organzing adoption events with Orphans since last Thanksgiving when they were asked  to help with Kongsgiving. Since then, Toni has been accepted on the board, and they have maintained a close relationship with Bethann and her Husband, Brian.  Bethann talks about the history of Orphans of the Storm, and how her mother started the organization because she saw so many stray animals get killed, or discarded in Kittanning. Since then, the rescue has stayed in the family, and has been a beacon of hope, sanctuary, and resilience for the community. Not only does Orphans take in local animals, but from other rescues and shelters in need. At any point in time, they house over 100 animals in their small facility. Orphans of the Storm is always accepting donations. They have three major funds: Their day to day expenses, including vetting, spay, and neutering, their new building fund, and a medical fund for dogs with severe medical needs and attention. They accept donations through their website, and you can also donate at any Healthy Pet Producst location. We are excited to be working together towards a goal of saving lives, and strengthening a community.   Direct any comments or questions to: [email protected]  Visit our websites: www.healthypetproducts.net / www.toniunleashed.com  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healthypetproducts/ https://www.instagram.com/toni.unleashed/  Facebook: Thttps://www.facebook.com/HealthyPetProducts / https://www.facebook.com/ToniUnleashed  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAMxTEiHqRkpWNakn4OA__A  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healthypetproducts / https://www.tiktok.com/@toni.unleashed  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/HealthyPetProducts/ / https://www.pinterest.com/ToniUnleashed/
