BECOME A "HAPPY TAILS" FRIEND!

PLEASE HELP OUR CURRENT FOSTER ANIMALS FIND THEIR OWN HAPPY ENDINGS

WHAT IS A "HAPPY TAILS" FRIEND?

First of all, thank you for adopting one or more of Great Lakes Bay Animal Society's rescues!

As a former GLBAS adopter, we invite you to help our current foster animals find their own happy endings by being part of our Furriest 5K Race/Walk.  This race is our primary fundraiser and we rely on its profits to pay our costs for the upcoming year. Since 2012, GLBAS has cared for over 1100+ animals, that have received more than $160,000 in veterinary costs. Many of our animals arrive in dire medical distress from a local shelter, and by accepting them, GLBAS is preventing them from being euthanized.  (For more information, this VIDEO illustrates and shares the stories of some of the animals that arrived in dire medical distress, were simultaneously treated and brought into a GLBAS foster home and their ultimate journey to adoption.)


Here are three ways you can help today:


  1. Register for the FAST & FURRIEST 5K RACE and you will be generously providing the funds necessary to care for our foster animals. 
  2. Purchase a RACE COURSE SIGN for $25.00. These signs will be placed along the trail at Midland City Forest  and you can choose the message on your sign.
  3. Make a specified MONETARY DONATION of any amount.  


Most importantly, thank you for taking a chance on one of our animals. Our foster families shed tears when their rescues leave, but they are happy knowing they have found a wonderful home in which these animals can thrive.

   BECOME A GLBAS "HAPPY TAILS" FRIEND TODAY!!!
