For the first time in 25 years, WolfWood had to cancel a community event as we couldn’t safely get to Purgatory with the animals in March. Purgatory generously made a donation to help us anyway.
We are grateful to the Southern Ute Indian Tribe, in coordination with the Sky Ute Casino Resort, for allowing WolfWood to participate in their annual nonprofit money booth. The money raised in the booth will go a long way to helping to offset the costs of supporting our 60 pack members.
Farmers Fresh Market in Ignacio recently donated 20 shopping baskets of meat that defrosted when their freezer went out. The Pagosa Brewing Co. hosted our annual event and visit with the animals by donating beer to patrons making a donation to WolfWood.
We are also grateful for physical help. Stone Age Inc. supports the refuge with yearly donations from its employees and sent volunteers to help the animals. Sixteen thousand pounds of food was unloaded, brush was cleared and chipped, weeds were cut down and the donated meat from Farmers Fresh Market was picked up and unloaded. Volunteers were rewarded with lunch and wolf kisses.
WolfWood is very thankful for these efforts from businesses and local nonprofits. What a giving and supportive community we live in!
We also look forward to seeing everyone at the Rochester Secret Garden on July 31, Five Branches in Vallecito on Aug. 3 and our first visit ever to Silverton on July 15.
