We’d like to extend a very special THANK YOU to Peter K. for raising $493.06 for A New Chance, by asking all of his family and friends to contribute to a fund in his honor instead of purchasing him birthday gifts this year! Peter is also the proud owner of an ANCAR pup, Quincy, adopted in February! Thank you so much Peter; with this donation, we are able to help partially pay for the surgery Quincy’s brother had to fix his intestinal intussusception.
Special Thanks
A very special thank you to Wipe Your Paws in Bedford Hills for giving Elsa a wonderful bath free of charge.
Now we can all admire Elsa’s gorgeous golden brown/black coloring.
Gernine Tuckner wears many hats at ANCAR. She is an amazing Board Member, a dynamic volunteer, a generous donor, and a nurturing foster mother. In 2015, Gernine has fostered over 20 dogs. She often takes puppies in together and works very hard to prepare them properly for their forever homes. Gernine is always welcoming and educating new volunteers and foster homes, and she makes a point to really teach each of her adopters about the responsibility of owning a dog before they consider adopting. She is passionate about the work ANCAR does and referred some friends to ANCAR to donate, foster, and adopt. Gernine is a beacon of hope for the dogs that she opens her home to who would have lost their lives without her generosity. From all of the dogs you have helped save, THANK YOU Gernine for championing for them.
Thank You to Northern Westchester Hospital for including us in their gala benefit this year at Old Salem Farm! This year’s theme was Patient Centered Care and we were proud to represent the therapeutic and health benefits that dogs provide to humans. We met some amazing and caring animal lovers and our dog ambassadors, Reeses and Kingston, were on hand to give dog cuddles and kisses. Northern Westchester Hospital even baked us these jumbo dog biscuits to hand out to guests as they left.
Thank you so much for inviting A New Chance to your annual event, Northern Westchester Hospital, and for giving us such a wonderful showcase to introduce people to our work.
We cannot thank Victoria Fenton (an ANCAR adopter) and Kate Mercer enough for asking for donations to A New Chance Animal Rescue in lieu of birthday gifts. They pooled their money and together raised $1,000! These girls are not only absolutely amazing, but so caring and generous. We are so lucky to have such special junior volunteers!!
We’d like to extend a huge thank you to Greg Small,an ANCAR junior volunteer and the 8th Grade Co-President of the Windward School, for suggesting that the Student Council donate the proceeds of their bake sale to A New Chance Animal Rescue! The $120.00 you raised is enough to help sponsor the vet care of one of our dogs.
