Hi Friends, yes we are doing this fundraiser for Nate and April at All Paws Inn. If you haven’t heard by now, they had to close down their business and move out….

“On September 13th, we received bad news in the form of an inspection report on the building we lease for our business. The building has become untenable and it is not safe to continue operating our business. We had to have the inspection done because of numerous health issues April has recently had, and we wanted to make sure that nothing in the building could have contributed to it. Because of what the inspection report said, we had lost our home and jobs in one fell swoop. We luckily found a temporary place to stay with very wonderful clients. But now we have to start all over, Any donation would be greatly appreciated. Every little bit helps.

And as always, have a wonderful day with joy and merriment.”

-Nate & April

With all that said, Nate & April have been serving our community for many, many years, providing a safe place for dogs to go and play for doggy daycare or stay over for boarding. They have done so much for this community and all the dogs. They have cared for so many dogs over the years and loved them like their own. They absolutely loved running a doggy daycare/boarding business—they loved what they did for a living. And after speaking with them I could tell they’re absolutely heartbroken with everything that’s happened. Their whole lives have been ripped from them and they have to start all over!

So it would be nice to give back to them and help them out in their greatest time of need.

They also wanted to be completely transparent with everyone, at this point, they don’t know if they will even be able to reopen, they are waiting to find out!

This money will go directly to Nate & April to help them rebuild their lives, get back on their feet, provide food for themselves and their dogs, and secure a place for them to live.

Please consider making a donation to help April and Nate, as they have helped ALL OF US for so long!!!

Please and thank you!!!

**Update: I personally upped the goal amount, as Nate and April just found out their insurance won’t cover fixing the building they were leasing. They no longer can reopen at this time.. and they’re unsure on what to do next. This means, no jobs and no money coming in!!! So they need our help now more then ever!! Please consider donating, and if you can’t, PLEASE SHARE!!! As many times as you want… it will really help!!!

Thank you for understanding!

(And there’s a tip option here when making a donation to the person who created it- please do not leave me (Rebecca) a tip, that’s not what I want. I’d rather that money go to Nate & April or you save your money- no tips please, I just want to help )
