On the heels of the very successful “Can The Van” event that the Passaic County SPCA held last weekend in West Milford, they are following up with the holiday-themed “Pet Pics With Santa!”
SPCA officials said this event will be at The Pet Pantry, located at their headquarters at 794 Lafayette Ave. in Hawthorne, New Jersey.
They will be decorating the pantry’s porch and will have Santa Claus stationed there from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. this Saturday, no matter the weather. Here is the link for the event details on their Facebook page
Stephanie Hornback, Passaic County SPCA Board Executive, said “we are asking for everyone attending to please bring a pet food donation to help restock the pantry.
Our mobile van is now able to assist across Passaic County and the need for items has increased. We also will kindly accept a monetary donation on site.”
Elisabeth Barker, Passaic County SPCA member, devised this event and is organizing the decorating later this week after the snowstorm passes. She said, “It seemed like a no-brainer.
The pantry continuously needs donations and we all could use some Christmas cheer. Holiday pet pictures make great keepsakes for years to come.
You're helping support families and pets in need. Nothing says Christmas more! We hope you will join us Saturday.”
