The HSVC would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to 7-year-olds Sage and Ava for their dedication to helping shelter animals in need! The pair stopped by the shelter Saturday afternoon to donate the profits they collected from their lemonade and cookie stand, a whopping $313! According to their parents, the girls hand-picked and juiced the lemons, made the lemonade themselves and sold it at their neighborhood stand. They also donated some blankets to keep the animals warm during winter. This is the second year Ava and Sage have helped us make a difference in the lives of homeless shelter animals, and we couldn't be more grateful for their support! Keep up the great work ladies! 

As a private nonprofit, our shelter does not receive any funding from the government or any other national animal welfare organization. We rely solely on the generosity of animal lovers like Sage and Ava to continue providing our vital services to the community. If you would like to support our efforts, please click the button below to donate now. Our shelter is also always in need of clean blankets, towels, pet toys, and unopened pet food. Donations can be dropped off in person at the shelter, located at 402 Bryant St. in Ojai, CA, any time during business hours between 10 am - 5 pm.
