ROUND UP FOR THE PUPS

And the kitties too! The Humane Society of South Coastal Georgia has partnered with Roundup App, a “spare change” donation platform that lets you automatically donate change rounded up from everyday transactions. When you use the RoundUp App, the extra change from each transaction you make on a card of your choice is rounded up and donated to HSSCG monthly for the care of the animals, which number in the thousands each year. It only takes a few minutes to complete your profile online and choose HSSCG as the nonprofit. Your RoundUps will then be automatically tracked and donated to HSSCG on the last day of each month.

FOUNDATION DONATES FUNDS

The American Red Cross of Southeast Georgia recently received a generous donation of $5,000 from the Terry Thomas Foundation. This grant will support emergency Susan Goodhue of the Terry Thomas disaster services to those in Foundation and Brooke Thompson, Red Glynn County, including Cross Board member and volunteer relief from severe weather and home fires. Thanks to donations like this, hundreds of people can be assisted by connecting them with recovery services, providing temporary shelter, and meals. “We are grateful for the ongoing support of the Terry Thomas Foundation,” said Maria Center, executive director of the American Red Cross’ Southeast Georgia Chapter. “Their understanding of the significance of ensuring that we have the funds to provide essential emergency disaster services is critical to helping all people in Glynn County.” Last year, the organization responded to 40 disaster operations and provided resources to 51 families throughout Southeastern Georgia.
