Newlyweds Donate to HSTJ in Lieu of a Wedding Gift! Thank you Robbie & Jenna

Robbie and Jenna proud parents of one of HSTJ's rescues, tied the knot on August 5th at the beautiful Coronado Community Center in sunny San Diego. In lieu of getting their guests a party favor, they decided to make a donation to their two favorite charities, one of which was HSTJ!


Being the creative genius that he is, Robbie designed these amazing personalized $5 bills that each guest received to deposit into their charity of choice. Robbie and Jenna raised over $300 for HSTJ, more than enough to fund one full Itchy Scratchy clinic to treat many dogs and cats for fleas, mange and parasites. At these clinics HSTJ volunteers also educate the public about humane treatment, proper nutrition and of course the importance of sterilization.

Thank you Robbie and Jenna again, not only for rescuing your beloved Bigotes, but also for funding a clinic through your generous and creative wedding fundraiser!

If you are getting married or are having a party and would like to use this idea, let me know and I can put you in contact with Robbie to help you design your charity money! Just e-mail michelle@friendsofhstj.org

There are many ways to help the animals of Tijuana and to support HSTJ, if you would like information on volunteering, please visit our website http://www.friendsofhstj.org/VolunteerOpportunities.html
