Supporting SafePet through the holidays

Donation by Timothy Sullivan lawyer

Our ongoing commitment

As you probably know, at the beginning of November we were proud to support SafePet Ottawa’s Shine Through the Night Gala.

We think SafePet is doing important work because they’re helping to look after the pets of women and children fleeing abusive homes, and caring for those pets while those women get on their feet again. It’s one of those often-overlooked details that can make a real difference: There’s significant evidence that women stay in abusive situations when they feel that leaving will put a family pet in danger.

So this Christmas we’re continuing to support SafePet, with a donation of $650.

Sure, it’s a bit of a cliched photo, with the big cheque and all – but we’re always happy to look a bit cheesy in the name of a good cause.
