"PROJECT PALAPA" OFFERS RELIEF to DOGS in HOT DESERT SUN

 

"PROJECT PALAPA"

 
CANCER
 
Here in San Felipe
the hot summer weather is oppresive to dogs and cats who not only struggle to find drinkable water, but have to hide under cars or vans, in dark dank basements or construction sites to get shelter from 100 degree+ heat and matching humidity. 
 

At the San Felipe Animal Rescue site in the desert of Las Minitas our plan is to erect a series of Mexican style shade PALAPAS and replace older, wind battered shade tarps that have been destroyed over the winter. 

 
You might recall that in January of 2006, an arsonist burned our clinic to the ground--the fire incinerated everything in its path, turning all our supplies and meds and the entire structure into ashes. 
 
We've just completed a $100,000 two story rebuild, but are looking for additional help to accomplish "PROJECT PALAPA". Estimates of $8500-$10,000 guarantee an incredible result, and the completed project will provide better quality of life to all our dogs who live here.
 
San Felipe is a poor fishing village where everything that happens to improve quality of life for its people and its animals is almost always privately funded.
 Please help us get "PROJECT PALAPA" started.

our kennels and outside runs are

humidity. Extreme desert winds
blow our shade tarps away as soon as we put them up. This project will provide sturdy PALAPAS like this one which are very secure and

far cooler for the dogs.
