Before break, one of our students began a drive to collect goods for the Houlton Humane Society. On that Friday, he delivered much needed pet supplies and a check for $150 to Houlton’s Humane Society. Volunteer Linda Sewell greeted us warmly and expressed genuine gratitude for the donations. John was treated to a tour of the facility and was able to visit with the shelter cats and dogs awaiting adoption. Thanks to our Katahdin Schools students and staff who contributed to this worthy cause. Thinking of adopting or volunteering your time? Visit the home page to view the pets up for adoption and more information. Thanks to John for sharing his time and kind heart with the pets while they await their forever home.
