In a heartwarming display of community support, Haselwood Auto Group is once again gearing up to make a substantial impact on the lives of furry friends in need.
Through their ongoing partnership with the Kitsap Humane Society, this July, the dealership’s gift of giving continues as $20 from each vehicle purchased and $5 for every vehicle serviced goes to the local animal shelter.
Since 2018, Haselwood Auto Group raised $384,353 for Kitsap Humane Society’s stray animals, which is the equivalent of vaccinations for over 77,000 animals.
Last year alone, their efforts raised nearly $100,000, demonstrating the profound impact of small collective contributions. No matter how small a donation may seem, Mike Bush, Communications Director at the KHS, says every donation makes a difference.
“As a non-profit, we don’t receive government funding. We really rely heavily on the generosity of businesses like Haselwood Auto Group. Throughout the year, donations fluctuate and so does the population here in Kitsap. These fundraisers not only raise money, but also spread awareness that our shelters are full and that our animals need loving homes.”
In addition to donations from every car purchased and serviced, contributions from customers and employees are also accepted via Venmo through a QR code at the Haselwood Auto Group. If you have already donated through this article, let staff know by leaving a note on your Venmo submission.
These donations are integral to the overall fundraising effort, allowing individuals interested in contributing to simply scan the code and make donations directly through the Venmo platform.
Later this month, on July 27, West Hills Kia hosts a pet adoption event in partnership with the Kitsap Humane Society, with puppies and kittens available for adoption.
Beyond adoptions, funds raised each year support critical programs at the Kitsap Humane Society, including their low-cost veterinary clinic, community cat program and pet food pantry – essential for providing ongoing care and support to animals and families in need throughout Kitsap County.
