Thank You for Getting Inked for Animals! 

We want to send a massive THANK YOU to everyone who came out to support our charity tattoo event at Evolution Ink in aid of the Gananoque & District Humane Society!

The energy, the vibes, and the turnout were absolutely incredible—and thanks to your generosity and love, we raised over $1,500 to help animals in need!

Huge shoutout to our rockstar artists, Jenna and Chris, who tattooed non-stop with skill, heart, and hustle. You two were unstoppable, and we couldn’t have done it without you!

Thank You to Evolution Ink's owners Kristen and Jerrod and their amazing clients. Your passion for art and animal rescue made this event a smashing success.

Thank you PUMP HOUSE CREAMERY for raising $1,195.75 through the Cupcake Fundraiser!

Sales of those delicious Cupcakes raised $1,195.75 for the Gananoque and District Humane Society.  I have personally tasted each type of Cupcake and can verify that they were all amazing!  We want to thank Chris and Ted for their hard work and generosity!!!

While the Kitties were not able to share in the deliciousness, they do benefit from having a safe environment and loving care that donations like this help pay for.

Please remember, with Spring upon us and Summer not too far away, it is always a GREAT time to enjoy some Ice Cream or a sweet treat, so drop by the Pump House Creamery!

And don't forget - the Bottle Return shed is available to take your bottle returns

The bottle return donations are a major source of income for GDHS, and without our bottle return enclosure, many people were asking if we were still accepting donations

Songwood Contracting kindly built the enclosure using reclaimed lumber so GDHS can accept bottles and cans for return to the LCBO. 
TELL YOUR FRIENDS and FAMILY!
