<div>Steve Corr has recently been diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), a diagnosis that has deeply shaken all of us who know and love him. Steve has always been an amazing leader and a true friend to so many in our community, and now he needs our support more than ever.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Steve is currently receiving care at Kootenai Health in Coeur d'Alene, where his medical team is working diligently to prepare him for chemotherapy. Before beginning treatment, doctors are waiting on further test results to tailor his chemotherapy to his specific variation of AML, ensuring he receives the most effective care possible.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Steve is expected to remain in the hospital for at least a month or more, depending on how long it takes his bone marrow to rebuild after treatment. This will be an incredibly tough journey for him, as the intense nature of his chemotherapy means he must stay far from home to receive the specialized care he needs.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>His wife, Kristin, has been making frequent trips to Coeur d'Alene and staying there to be by his side during this challenging time. Both Steve and Kristin will be taking time off work to focus on his treatment and recovery. The funds raised will not only help with medical expenses but also with travel costs, lodging, and day-to-day bills as they navigate this difficult phase together.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Visitors are welcome during this time, provided he feels up to it, but strict precautions such as wearing masks will be necessary once chemo begins in order to protect his immune system.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We are reaching out to ask for your support. Whether through a donation, sharing this campaign, or keeping him in your thoughts and prayers, every bit of support helps and is deeply appreciated.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Steve has given so much to our community, and now it’s our turn to give back to him. Let’s show our support for a man who has dedicated so much of himself to all of us.

<div><strong>These are just some of our Sanctuary Sweethearts that will remain at the rescue for the remainder of their lives. </strong>
</div>
<div><strong>Due to various issues they are unadoptable. But they will always have a home with us.</strong>
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/78064563_1707760207121852_r.jpeg" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Update! We have passed the $2000 mark and are on our way and we can't thank you enough! These funds will allow us to build our medical fund from $0 to a small amount in case of emergencies, keep plenty of food in stock, currently we spend $700 per week, take everyone for their annual check ups, fence in a better play yard for those that have springs in their legs and can easily jump a 6 foot fence, put up a couple more kennels, bring in more Pea stone and some pavers to keep everyone dry as mud season is coming. We also need covers for a couple of our kennels and a couple more dog houses.
</div>
<div>We truly can't wait for the day when the adoptable pups will have their very own building and kennels and dog houses will be a thing of the past. But one step at a time, we need to be at a point where we are not bugging all of you for money all the time. We truly hate to do that.
</div>
<div>So please help us keep going! Share with everyone! Even small $5 donations add up if enough people do it. We can't continue without you. Thank you for all your support
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>UPDATE: We have had some great responses from some incredible people and we here at Decator's Place, humans and dogs alike, would like to thank you!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have our inspection coming up and it's much harder now that we are facility based. We still need some kennels, fencing, gravel, pavers and a dog house to pass. Beyond that we have food, medications, vaccines, and yearly checkups for not just the adoptable dogs but also for our sanctuary pups as well. People tend to forget we have them and need to provide for them as well for the remainder of their lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Again, we'd like to thank those that have donated - we so appreciate it. If each and every one of our 4,042 followers donated just $10, we would not only be saved but able to start the next phase.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!
</div>

<div>We have approximately 30 acres of property on which we'd like to expand! With this help we could help other northern breeds, provide low cost boarding for rescues that have no room, and eventually train some of these dogs to become service animals for those that need them .
</div>
<div>As we have said we have big plans for these dogs who have so much to offer. They are such a loyal, loving, incredibly smart and hard working breed. Help us start on those big plans as not many rescues have the acreage we have that can be developed to do so much more than just rescue these dogs. There are only so many pet homes out there and even less that can handle a large stubborn breed like the Alaskan Malamute. But if they are trained for jobs like service animals, Search and Rescue, etc., then they will have so many more opportunities. Is it fair for a military veteran to come home in need a service animal and be told that it will cost thousands of dollars? Or a needy child? These dogs are the perfect option to be trained for these jobs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Help us to help them to help those in need! We sincerely appreciate it.</strong>

<div>UPDATE 2/6/24:
</div>
<div>Hey guys. Cody's diagnosis was officially 'B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia'. As of today he is on his 4th round of chemotherapy, and is expected to be on that regimen for a predicted 6 months. The donations coming in have been amazing but we still have a long way to go!  It will be covering not only impending medical bills but also cost-of-living for Cody.  Please continue to share if you can! The love is appreciated more than you know.

<div>Hey guys, our great friend Cody Beamish is facing a long arduous battle ahead with Leukemia. These last couple weeks Cody wasn't feeling well and went to the doctor, and received the unfortunate news that he has a form of Leukemia. While he waits to find out which kind, he is aware that the future ahead will be difficult and certainly very costly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cody has always been an amazing soul to everyone he has met, please remember and give our great friend a helping hand in his time of need. If you cannot donate, please share!

<div>Adams County Pet Rescue is a shelter in Eastern, WA. 
</div>
<div>This is a hard post to write but a necessary one. We find ourselves in a position that we will only survive if we have donations. The government agencies that we work with are unable to find the funds to support us. We are going to have to depend on people who don't know us, who don't live in our area but who have a deep love of animals and understand the importance of having a pet rescue in Adams County. 
</div>
<div>We find ourselves in the same position as other rescues and shelters around the country, it is no secret there are too many dogs and not enough adopters for them all. We cringe when shelters and rescues continously bring in dogs from out of state and country as we look at our owm good dogs and see them continue to not be adopted.
</div>
<div>We are overworked and continously stressed not only about more and more animals needing help but about the economic side of operating a pet rescue. It's no secret that we are barely surviving. We've battled parvo and the inability to do adoptions during those times while still keeping the shelter animals fed and cared for.  We asked for donations earlier this year and had a super first time auction which are are immensely grateful for! Grants seem to be non-existent for our type of pet rescue. 
</div>
<div>We want to give up, it's  exhausting on every person involved due to not knowing if we can continue.  We look at all of the good we do but there comes a point where we can't do anything without funding. 
</div>
<div>ACPR wants to share with you the cost of running our shelter.
</div>
<div>We just paid over $11,000 for our insurance coverage. 
</div>
<div>Every two weeks our employee wages cost close to $24,000.
</div>
<div>The vet bills for basic spay/neuter and things that normally come up that need help come to an average around  $10,000/month.  All of our dogs and cats that leave the shelter must be spayed/neutered, be vaccinated, microchipped and up to date on vaccines including rabies. We do basic health care with our vets but anything extra for injuries and illness we fundraise for on a case by case basis. 
</div>
<div>The cost of keeping a dog for a year is close to $1,100 and we have over 120 dogs, many of them have been here over 9 months because they are Shepherds, Pits and Huskies. 
</div>
<div>Our utilities are close to $5,000 a month for power, propane, phones etc.
</div>
<div>Our expenses through the end of August come out to $596,395.52. These are the basics to keep the shelter running with no extra finds to replace things like our washing machine, kennel doors, septic etc. 
</div>
<div>Our adoptions have totalled $153,391.00 and donations have totalled $174,727.00, contracts with the government agencies have totalled $112,996.
</div>
<div>In order to make payroll and expenses just through the end of the year, we need close to $200,000. 
</div>
<div>We hope you will consider supporting us or sharing with others who may be interested in supporting us! 
</div>

Help our shelter stay open!

<div>Hey friends and family, thanks for giving us the time to grieve our mom. We are ready to celebrate her as she would want and I hate asking for help but we could really use it now. My mom was the only family I have and now it’s up to myself and my siblings to pull this together for her. Due to her getting sick so fast, we all took off a lot of time from work to be there in the end to help take care of her and be there as she passed and of course needed more time for ourselves after that. We are asking for help so we can celebrate her with all our friends and family and the 4 of us kids will be splitting whatever is left over to help us recover as well. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We picked a date of September 2nd to celebrate our mom and we’d love anyone that would like to go to be there. I will give out more information soon on location and time and please message me if you have any questions about her service

<div>This GOFUNDME is the official fundraiser to raise money for a statue of Adam West in his hometown of Walla Walla, Washington.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>We have been working on this project for quite some time in order to find the right sculptor, design, placement, approval from our city and of course approval from the family of Adam West.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>We are so excited to announce that everything is now in place and we are finally ready to begin fundraising for this well deserved honor! To honor our one and only Bright Knight!
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Our sculptor is animator, comic book artist and sculptor Ruben Procopio. Long affiliated with Walt Disney Feature Animation as an animation artist and sculptor, Rubén was instrumental in reviving the maquette process at Disney Feature Animation film production in the 1980s. He is the founder of Masked Avenger Studios, whose clients include Warner Bros. Animation, New Line Cinema, Cartoon Network, Electric Tiki, Enesco and DC Comics. He is known for his versatility and dynamic style in sculpting and drawing. Ruben even sculpted a bust of Adam West, through Masked Avenger Studios. Here is a great interview done some years back with Ruben and showing photos of Ruben and Adam together. <a href="https://13thdimension.com/batman-66-artist-ruben-procopio-adam-wests-michelangelo/" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://13thdimension.com/batman-66-artist-ruben-procopio-adam-wests-michelangelo/</a>
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>The placement will be Menlo Park just off of Alvarado Terrace in Walla Walla. This is the perfect park for Adam's statue because it is just down the street from where Adam went to school as a little boy (Green Park) and only one block away from the house where a young Billy Anderson (Adam West) lived. Alvarado Terrace is now also known as ADAM WEST WAY where his name was added to the street to honor him in 2017 after his passing.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Our top priority has always been to respect the wishes of the family of Adam West. We only wanted to proceed if we had their blessing and only if they approved the design and project. We are very happy to let everyone know that the family is in full support of our project and the design itself. One thing that was very important to them, and us as well, is that the statue should be of the man himself and not Batman. As we all know Adam was much more than just Batman as his amazing career spanned more than 60 years!
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>The design of the statue is an homeage to Adam West during the classic days he hosted at the famed Hollywood Palace. As you can see from the main photo the statue will be on a base with a surrounding lighting system. One special feature is at night there will be a light projecting a Bat to pay tribute to our Bright Knight!
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Our statue will be 100% privately funded and we have the full support of our local City Council who voted on the approval of the statue awhile back. Ruben Procopio will be working closely with our local Foundry on every step of the process while reporting the progress to the family of Adam West. The work at the Foundry can begin in approximately one years time (Sept, 2022) so now is the ideal time to raise the necessary funding. The estimated cost of the statue, including expenses and installation will be approximately $200,000. Our goal is to break up the fundraising efforts in Four phases of $50,000 for each phase.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>This statue will be truly an inspiration to all of his fans around the world and for future generations to come. Please help us honor our late great Bright Knight Adam West with this statue and show his family that his legacy will truly live on in our hearts forever!
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Thank you so much for your support!

<div>Here is a biography on Adam West:
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Adam West is a true American Icon. From his humble beginnings on a wheat farm in Walla Walla, Washington, Adam skyrocketed to fame in Hollywood, pursuing an extraordinary career in entertainment that has spanned half a century. His role as Batman in the classic television series and feature of the same name continues to be seen throughout the world more than fifty years after its debut. While Batman, and his alter ego, Bruce Wayne, remains his signature role, Adam has a multitude of motion picture, theater, and TV credits to his name. Mayor West I presume?
</div>

<div>He made nearly 50 movies, including starring or co-starring roles in Drop Dead Gorgeous, The New Age, The Young Philadelphians, An American Vampire Story, Soldier in the Rain, Robinson Crusoe on Mars, and Nevada Smith.

</div>

<div>Adam West lent his iconic voice to animated characters in such well-known series as Family Guy, The Simpsons, Rugrats, Batman, Animaniacs, Jonny Bravo, Spydogs, Fairly Odd Parents, The Super Adventure Team, Robot Chicken and many others. His voice-over work in animated film includes two animated Batman films: Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders and Batman vs. Two Face, as well as Disney’s Chicken Little and Meet the Robinsons. In 2000, he also contributed the voice of Leonard Fox to the animated short, Redux Riding Hood, which went on to win an Academy Award nomination.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>For more than 60 years after starting his career in Hollywood, Adam West continued to work consistently in TV and film. His undeniable talent and unique off-kilter brand of humor have become truly iconic in entertainment and his work continues to entertain fans around the world.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Adam West was a devoted and loving family man. He was married to his wife Marcelle West for over 46 years and was father to six children, grandfather to five and great-grandfather to two. He resided in his beloved Ketchum, Idaho until his passing on June 9th, 2017 after a battle with Leukemia. His positive legacy as The Bright Knight continues to shine through the impact he made both personally as well as through his prodigious body of work.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Adam West authored two books, Back to the Batcave and Climbing the Walls.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>He gave his support to numerous charities and won $250,000 on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, on behalf of an organization supporting underprivileged women and children in Idaho. He also supported St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Camp Rainbow Gold.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Adam West legacy will truly live on in our hearts forever and continue to inspire his millions of fans around the world!

<div>Detra has been working hard her whole life, but she hasn't always been paid for it. And living in New York isn't easy when you're on your own. Detra can manage the day-to-day, but she hasn't been able to tuck anything away for the golden years. She currently has $26,000 in credit card debt left over from the survival years. If you enjoyed her story and would like to help her breathe a little bit, please consider donating as we try to give her a little cushion!

<div>YOU WILL RECEIVE A TAX-DEDUCTIBLE CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTION RECEIPT <br /><br />There are tens of thousands of Afghan refugees living at various military bases in the US, awaiting resettlement. Our country's refugee resettlement resources have been completely overwhelmed, so private citizens are being invited to help in the effort.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div><strong>Studies show that refugees who are sponsored directly by private citizens, rather than an agency, usually integrate more quickly and successfully. We solicit your help as we welcome an Afghan refugee family to the Walla Walla valley.</strong>
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>We have formed a Sponsor Circle to build a welcoming community and financially assist an Afghan family who will resettle in Walla Walla, Washington. One other Afghan refugee family has already been resettled in Walla Walla by a sponsor circle. 
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Upon certification and family assignment, we will assist the family get up on their feet and become independent.  This includes housing, furnishings, shopping, finding employment, enrolling in school, navigating US immigration, public services, enhancing English fluency, and getting to know their new community.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Since we are planning for a family of eight, our current fundraising target is $18,200.  (# in family x $2,275)   A minimum of 60% (or $10,920) must be raised in this campaign before we can be assigned a family. 100% of the received funds will be spent on supporting the family's start-up and living expenses during a 90-day period of transition to independence in our community. Most of it will go toward housing-related costs.<br /><br />
</div>

<div>This is a wonderful opportunity to help one refugee family get a fresh start in a welcoming community.  We will post updates when we have been assigned a family.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>If for any reason we are not assigned an Afghan family, all funds will be returned to the donors.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Our Sponsor Circle currently includes these people:
</div>

<div><strong>Marci Evans, Roberto Gomez, Ronda &amp; Art King, Kim Toomey, Vanessa Lomeland</strong>
