MCHA vs. Almost Home Humane Society Fundraising Challenge
This year, we challenged our friends at Almost Home Humane Society in Lafayette, Indiana (home of the Purdue, Boilermakers) to a Fundraising challenge, and thanks to fans in Bloomington, Indiana, WE WON!
MCHA was in a race to raise more donations for the spay/neuter assistance fund than fans in Lafayette, Indiana. The official challenge tip off was Thursday, February 5 at 9am, and ended on Thursday, February 19th at the IU vs. Purdue basketball game. MCHA raised $780 towards the spay/neuter assistance fund and saw to it that staff from Almost Home Humane Society took a pie in the face, with an emphatic "Go Hoosiers!"
Thank you for your support, and most importantly, GO HOOSIERS!

The Eyes of Trump
When I first met Trump and his family, my heart was broken for all of them. My heart hurt for Trump, because as beautiful as he was, he'd been abused in one of the worst and most unthinkable ways. Someone had used his beauty and perfect form for their gain. They had used him as their ticket to fame and money, showing him in dog shows, over and over again, until he literally could do nothing but spin in a perfect left circle. Read more of Trump's story here. |
