Class of 2024 for their final class project teamed with the Clinton County Humane Society and PAWS Humane Society for a Pet Supply Drive that ran all through the month of March.
Many members of this Leadership Clinton class secured drop-off locations in various parts of the county for those who wanted to contribute. When class members collected the donations, Leadership Clinton was overwhelmed by the positive outpour of support.
The reason why this class decided to pursue this cause is because many members of the class have adopted animals or love for animals in general. After much discussion and research, it came to light that these organizations are always in short supply of paper towels, trash bags, soap, and many other things while operating on a minimal budget. Just to name a few, LC collected hundreds of trash bags, cleaning supplies, cans of food, and so much more!
Leadership Clinton also wants to thank businesses that agreed to be drop-off locations:
● Peoples Bank in Blanchester
● Peoples Bank in Wilmington (both locations)
● Wilmington Savings Bank
“It was fun to raise the pet supplies for the shelters. It is a worthy cause and it was cool to see the community pull so many supplies together," said Danielle Theil, Peoples Bank Manager and 2024 Leadership Clinton graduate.
To conclude this project, the 2024 class of Leadership Clinton held graduation on April 23 at TinCap where they presented results of their class project. Many class members wanted to thank their places of employment and personal affiliations for sponsoring them to be a part of Leadership Clinton.
