It is that time of year again. We are now selling raffle tickets for our Annual Acadiana Humane Society Raffle Fundraiser. We are still seeking donations of new items, gift certificates, gift baskets, autographed celebrity items (photos, books, swag, etc.), and anything else of value to help us raise much needed funds for our non-profit no-kill animal rescue. All donations are tax deductible. All money raised goes to the rescue animals needs for pet food, vetting, litter and animal supplies, and shelter expenses. There are no paid employees at Acadiana Humane Society, only volunteers. So every penny raised goes to the animal rescue.
We will provide free advertising on our website and in our newsletter for all businesses who donate for our raffle. Please email info@acadianahumane.org or suerabeaux@gmail.com for more information about how you can help. If you are local, you can call or fax us at 337-668-4484 to arrange pick up of any donated items. If you are out of state and would like to mail us a donated item for our raffle, the mailing address is:
Acadiana Humane Society
P.O. Drawer C
Sunset, Louisiana 70584-0536
If your item needs to be sent via UPS, FedEx, or other non-postal carrier, please email us for our physical address.
If you can’t donate items for our raffle, but would like to help, please check out our website for other ways you can help.
We are also in need of volunteers to help with our fundraisers, cleaning cat cages at Petsmart, and fostering dogs, cats, and small animals. If you would like to become a volunteer, please contact Sue at suerabeaux@gmail.com. Thank you!
