Our Volunteers Rock!

Pet Haven would like to extend a HUGE thank you to the volunteers who helped out at the blanket-making and treat-making parties that were held recently. Over 50 blankets were made, with more cut out and send home with volunteers to finish, and another 2 giant bags of fleece left to cut; and over 50 jars of treats were made, with biscuits sent home for dipping and another 150+ canning jars to fill. These items will be sold at Twice the Gift, the proceeds of which will benefit Pet Haven.

Twice the Gift is a unique shop in downtown Minneapolis that showcases the products and services of over 50 Twin Cities non-profit organizations, Pet Haven included. At Twice the Gift, shoppers can purchase products provided by each of the non-profits (including Pet Haven's blankets, treat jars, and other products), or purchase a Share Card, which honors a recipi
ent's interests by providing a donation to one of the non-profits.

Twice the Gift is located in the IDS Tower's Crystal Court. A grand opening celebration will be held on
Wednesday, October 28 from 3-7 p.m. Pet Haven and A Rotta Love Plus will be the featured non-profits on Friday, December 4 and Saturday, December 5.

The store is open from mid-October to December 31 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., as well as on the three Sunday's preceding Christmas, from 12 noon to 5 p.m., and December 24 and 31 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

See

We hope you'll stop buy to purchase some of our products or a Share Card in Pet Haven's name! And another HUGE thank you to the volunteers who helped make the products!
