![]() Douglassville Veterinary Hospital Donates 500lbs Food to the ARL – original article from Berks Mont News The Animal Rescue League (ARL) of Berks County received a big donation from the Douglassville Veterinary Hospital. Thanks to a fundraiser on Facebook, the ARL received 500 pounds of Hill’s Pet Nutrition food for animals. The Douglassville Veterinary Hospital decided that for every new “like” they got on their page, they would donate one pound of food up to 500 pounds. The food in question was Hill’s Science Diet. The contest started on Nov. 20 and in one day alone, had reached 100 pounds of food. Within three days, they had already had enough new “likes” to reach their goal of 500 pounds. “The speed in which we accomplished the ‘500 like’ goal shows the public support for animals in need and the ARL specifically. We were thrilled to be able to help the ARL and this Facebook campaign allowed us to promote our veterinary practice while simultaneously helping shelter animals,” DVH doctor Geoff DeWire said. Judd Meinhart and Ashley Mikulsky of the ARL were on hand to receive the donation. Both were very appreciative of all the food that was being donated. According to Mikulsky, they have a “very active Facebook page” which was pushing viewers towards the Douglassville Veterinary Hospital page so as to help them reach their goal and benefit the ARL.

We need to thank Douglassville Veterinary Hospital for donating the right amount to push through with the project. Last week, they were just struggling. But after making several announcements which are badly needed, I am happy to see that many people have heard the cry for help! Without the fundraising event that was done on Facebook, your genuineness was very visible and people have seen it. We need to thank those people who became selfless by giving something!
