Erin Patchell at the Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS) asked if Green Living Ottawa could help spread the word about its entry in the Aviva Community Fund Challenge.
LAWS, an independent, no-kill animal shelter in Smiths Falls, is a semi-finalist for funding through the challenge; this round of voting goes until December 11, 2013. Aviva funds would enable LAWS to repair and upgrade its facilities and expand its education and other programs. You can support their bid here: http://www.avivacommunityfund.org/ideas/acf17584
