A huge thank you to Len and the Ottawa Animal Defense League for their "winter call for funds" campaign . While it's difficult all year round to raise the huge amount of funds needed to care for the animals at  Refuge RR and do the hard work load with very little or no help , it is that much more difficult during the winter months especially with well problems . The recent invoice for repair of the well was of $ 5,000.00 and ideally a new pump would be called for . The cost for hay and feed alone is well over $ 1,000.00  per week . Needless to say , the Refuge needs massive financial help all year round.

Again thank you Len , OADL and all those who made contributions , your help is so appreciated .
