WAG Cares Day of Care
On Sunday, February 27th our WAG team had a Day of Care where we all came in while the stores were closed to help support the United Way of Metro Chicago! We packed 500 snack packs ($2,000 worth of snacks purchased) for Youth Crossroads after school programs of underprivileged kids. Youth Crossroads seeks to provide youth with a comprehensive system of support, positive structures, and role models to help them navigate the personal and academic challenges they face in their daily lives, including counseling services, mentorship, tutoring, after-school enrichment programs, youth leadership training, college and job readiness, and community service. Hunger is a real issue for too many of our neighbors! These packs make all the difference for after school programs so kids can have something to eat and maintain their energy to do homework, study or be physically active. It was a great day where we were all able to do some good. 😊






Roscoe Rescues
We partnered with Roscoe Rescues for January and February where we were able to donate $5,000 to their amazing rescue!!! Their mission is dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of purebred animals. They work to empower communities through education so people can proudly and responsibly rescue their dream purebred pet. 2021 was their first year in operation where they took in 25 pets, finalized 20 adoptions in 10 different states, had 20 fosters open their doors, and traveled over 24 states logging over 12,000 miles to rescue and deliver animals to their new homes! Their transport team is made up of over 60 member.! Attached is a photo of the three lovely owners. All donations to Roscoe Rescues go directly to the care of their animals. Most of their money is spent on medical care for the animals. This includes, but is not limited to, vaccines, alterations, emergency medical care, quality dog food and more. They provide supplies for every animal. They also use funds to obtain/file proper state licenses- every state has a different requirement to operate inside them and provide health certificates.
