?? IT'S FILL A TRUCK FRIDAY! AND OUR BARK BRIGADE IS GETTING READY! ??
First, a HUGE THANK YOU to our incredible West Windsor residents, businesses, friends, and surrounding communities!
YOU HEARD OUR CALL, AND THE DONATIONS ARE STARTING TO ARRIVE! ❤️
Thanks to your generosity, our West Windsor Police Officers have been getting some serious workouts moving pallets of donated pet food and supplies into our Buxton's Boxes storage containers!
Who needs a gym membership when you have pallets of dog food to move? ?
BUT NOW IT'S GO TIME!
While donations are beginning to arrive, we still have a LONG WAY TO GO before we can fill our trucks for the 13th Annual Operation Bark Drop on Wednesday, December 16, 2026!
?✨ THIS WEEKEND, AS WE CELEBRATE DIWALI, THE FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS, WE ARE REMINDED OF THE TRIUMPH OF LIGHT OVER DARKNESS, GOOD OVER EVIL, AND HOPE OVER DESPAIR.
What better way to celebrate that spirit than by bringing a little light and happiness into the lives of shelter dogs and cats who depend on the kindness of others?
Let's make this weekend a triumph of generosity and community spirit!
