Help Michele with medical expenses & home needs

Donation protected
In the middle of the night on April 20th, Michele Stutler awoke to the smell of smoke.  Her home was on fire.  Michele, undoubtedly did all that she could to rescue her fur babies from the home and we believe she was able to save most of them.  She is currently in the West Penn Burn Center for injuries sustained while being a hero for her babies.
If you don’t know Michele, let me take this opportunity to tell you a little about her.  She is an advocate for all the animals in need in Ritchie County.  She spends hours each week at the shelter caring for the animals there and taking adorable photographs.  She uses those photos to help find amazing homes.  She is the shelter’s online presence and does a fantastic job.  She does so much and she is so much appreciated that words aren’t enough. 
Her heart is HUGE!
She is a loving daughter, aunt, friend and fur momma.  
Her home is a total loss. Her 3 dogs are safe at the shelter and we pray that her 3 cats were able to escape and will be found safe soon.
I’m reaching for the stars with this fundraiser because she deserves the stars!!! 
If you know Michele and love her as much as all of us at the humane society, please consider donating.  If she has played a part in connecting you with your fur baby and you want to show your appreciation, please do.  
Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

UPDATE 4/22/21 - Michele's mom shared that the surgeon states that her burns are 2nd degree and should mostly heal on their own.  She had a skin graft done on one of her wrists.  Hopefully she will have her breathing tube removed today or tomorrow but only time will tell.  Please continue your thoughts and prayers.  THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for the outpouring of love and support!
