Why do you wish for Pet Therapy at your Event?
Each year, we host a Warehouse Sale for the local community to attend. It brings hundreds of visitors, ranging from seniors to children. Since we've worked with the Pets and People Foundation for years, we thought this could be an excellent opportunity to raise awareness for Pets and People, and bring joy to our visitors.
Location(s) on premises reserved in advance?
yes
Event space indoors or outdoors?
We have reserved space both indoors and outdoors
Please provide a description the reserved location of event.

Have you considered how to promote this event?
We have a Facebook following of over 27,000 people, and our event ads tend to reach about 40,000. We plan to promote this through our Facebook page, Facebook event page, and Facebook ads (which lead over to Instagram, too). In addition, we'll have signs on the road and we'll post flyers around the local area to increase attendance.
Parking Arrangements
Volunteers should arrive early to the sale, most likely around 9:30 AM. They are welcome to park in the parking lot out front of Charles River Apparel.
Will other Pet Organizations be present?
No.
Outline any protocols needed for volunteers to come to your facility.
Volunteers should contact the responsible person to lead them to where they're supposed to go and help them gather appropriate supplies.
Additional Details/Comments/Questions
We know this event is near Thanksgiving, but we strongly feel this would be an excellent opportunity to give your organization the attention and reach it deserves. We'd appreciate the opportunity to showcase your services and exceptionally cute dogs to the local area.
