FIDO BAG TO HELP SAVE ANIMALS' LIVES DONATED BY RIVERLINE SELF STORAGE OF CINNAMINSON...

Thank you again to one of the largest corporate sponsors in my fundraising campaign for Fido Bags!!!  


Riverline Self Storage made an extremely generous donation of five (5) Fido Bags!!! 

Having a furry family in Cherry Hill, for whom I provide care of their wonderful kitties, I selected the Township of Cherry Hill to be one of the recipients of a Fido Bag, and that bag was present to the department a few months ago.  

An excerpt from a lovely thank you letter I received, written by Patrick T. Kelly, Fire Director, reads:   "On behalf of the Cherry Hill Fire Department and Board of Fire Commissioners, we extend our extreme thanks and gratitude for donating the "Fido" Bag to the department."

Thank you to Riverline Self Storage for making that donation possible! 

Fido Bags contain pet-specific equipment; namely, pet oxygen masks are included in a Fido Bag.  

Fido Bags are obtained via donations through The fetch Foundation and provided to fire departments, in an effort to help save animals' lives in the event of a fire or disaster.  

May the Cherry Hill Fire Department never need this Fido Bag… but it's comforting to me, knowing their first responders have one!!!   

Thank you again, Riverline Self Storage for your benevolent donation and The fetch Foundation for making Fido Bags possible!!!!

Through generous client and community donations and corporate sponsors, to date, I've Got the 'Scoop'! has raised  money to donate a total of 14 Fido Bags.
