Alpha Phi Omega

On 1.22.11, a group of eleven Alpha Phi Omega members from the University of Richmond Chapter, undertook a service project at the facility.  The project, organized by Andrew Massaro, a senior at University of Richmond and Alpha Phi Omega’s vice president and service coordinator, involved clearing brush and debris to extend our “Paw Paw” path.   (Mr. Massaro has a special interest in working with animals as he’ll be attending Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine in the fall of 2011.) Mr. Massaro and his group of Alpha Phi Omega members made great strides on the path despite the 20 degee temperature outside, nearly doubling the length of the path!  The group was treated to hot cocoa and donuts for all their hard work!  The members had such a great time that they’ve scheduled two more dates to return to the facility and work on the trail again to remove additional debris, add gravel, etc.   Funding for he “Paw Paw” path was originally provided by Robert Bailie and family.  The “Paw Paw” path is used by Hanover Humane’s personnel to exercise the dogs in Hanover Humane’s Adoption...

The Students of Pole Green Elementary

January was “Caring for Critters” month at Pole Green Elementary.  To celebrate our furry friends, the entire school conducted a supply drive for items on Hanover Humane’s Donation List.  The enthusiastic students collected 12 boxes of milk bones, 41 rolls of paper towels, and a variety of other items including cat toys and treats, dog toys and treats, gently-used linens, etc.  There were so many items that it took the efforts of the children and Humane Society personnel over a half hour to load all the merchandise into Hanover Humane’s van!    The first graders won the “Caring for Critters” contest by collecting the most items!   Pictured here are some of the first graders who participated in this event.   As a reward for their efforts, the first graders will be able to meet “Chip,” a small cairn terrier-mix in a presentation on February 8, 2011.  “Chip” was born into Hanover Humane’s program and spends his time going to various speaking engagements where he talks about Hanover Humane, meets the children, and provides them with treat bags.   “Chip” always has a grand time, and the children love him!   Anyone interested in having “Chip” attend an event may email...
