Second Annual Christmas Ornament Fundraiser

The City of La Porte Adoption Center and Animal Shelter is excited to announce the second annual, Christmas Ornament Fundraiser. The proceeds from this fundraiser will offset the annual cost of our microchip program. Every animal adopted from our shelter receives a registered microchip at no cost to the adopter. This fundraiser will allow us to continue providing this valuable service to our patrons allowing the quick identification and recovery of their animal should they be separated.

A Christmas tree will be set up for public view at the shelter, during the week following Thanksgiving. The tree decorations will include lights, tinsel, and simple wooden ornaments representing the pets of our community.

For a $10 donation, your pet’s name will be painted on one of those ornaments, and then placed on our tree throughout the holiday season, for all to see.

Hurry and reserve yours now!
