We have partnered with Give Back America to help our organization raise additional funds, all at no extra cost to you the consumer! Give Back America is an online shopping mall created to raise money for local charities. The concept is simple, every time you shop online from your favorite online retailer (ex. Target, Expedia, Amazon, Ebay) a percentage of each purchase goes to your favorite charity.

A big thanks goes out to Concerned Citizens for Animal Welfare for featuring Sophie’s Circle and the Southeast Volusia Humane Society in their current newsletter. Also, thank you to My Bliss Magazine for the full page devoted to Sophie’s Circle in the August issue. The August Yappy Hour was a huge success! The dogs were such a hit and so incredibly well behaved that we want them at all of our future Yappy Hours.
