“Paws” Fundraiser a Success

A fundraiser took place over the weekend for Rabun Paws 4 Life.

Jeff Southard of S&S Auto Parts was one of the event organizers, and he said that the event went well despite the weather.

“It was good. We raised $3000, or just shy of it, and we had about 30 cars,” said Southard. “Without the weather we could have probably done maybe double that, but it rained half the day.”

Shannon Conrad, the CEO of Rabun Paws 4 Life, said that she, and the animals here in Rabun County, are thankful.

“We’re absolutely thrilled with the donation of about $3,000 we received from the groups that were putting it on for us,” said Conrad. “We’re just thrilled that the community has pulled together to support this cause.”

Paws 4 Life has a meet the board event this weekend. More details on that later this week.
