Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
Hassan Proclaims Homeless Pet Awareness Week, Promotes Online Fundraiser for Animal Shelters
CONCORD — Gov. Maggie Hassan spoke out at the Statehouse on Tuesday to help spread the word about an online fundraiser for local animal shelters.
She read a proclamation that officially makes next week New Hampshire PetSave’s Homeless Pet Awareness Week.
PetSave, an organization created just a year and a half ago, has brought 12 shelters together to raise money online in hopes that working together can help them achieve their goals of saving the lives of animals across the state.
More than 120 people gathered at the site of the bell in Concord, surrounded by animal shelter volunteers and pets up for adoption to hear about the first nonprofit collaboration of its kind in New Hampshire. The event officially kicks off next week.
Anita Burroughs, the founder of PetSave, said people can visit their website to donate. They have received more than $10,000 since launching the site last week and hope to raise $100,000 by the end of next week. She said she started the online fundraiser to reach new supporters through social media.
