Project Maddie is reaching out and we need your help

Project Maddie was initially conceived as a way to help pet owners experiencing sudden, short term financial difficulties to keep their pets, but it quickly became apparent that some pet owners need our help on a long-term basis.

Many seniors and persons with disabilities with pets need assistance on an ongoing basis due to financial and mobility constraints.  For these individuals their connection to their pet(s) is vital to their quality of life and provides significant health benefits.  We are working with our partners to provide long-term assistance to these individuals and their pets, but outreach is critical to make sure they know that help is readily available.

Many of the people we are trying to reach out to do not have access to the internet.  This is especially true of senior citizens.  Project Maddie has started an outreach campaign specifically for senior citizens and persons with disabilities.  You can help with this outreach campaign by donating gas cards, gift cards for Staples Business Depot for printed materials, or monetary donations.

gift cards or cheques can be mailed to:

Project Maddie
c/o Oakville and Milton Humane Society
445 Cornwall Road
Oakville, ON  L6J 7S8

* cheques should be made payable to Project Maddie.

Alternatively e-mail money transfers can be made to projectmaddie at gmail dot com

If you would like to donate through Paypal you can send an e-mail transfer from your Paypal account to projectmaddie at gmail dot com

Thank you for everything you do to support Project Maddie, "keeping people and pets together"
