The Story of House with a Heart!

Each Friday for the next little while, we'll share with you the story and history of House with a Heart!

K-9 Medical Miracles Fundraiser.

Starting in 2018, we had an annual fundraiser for our K9 & Kitties Medical Miracles Program:

From April 2018:
"We are very excited to share with you the results of our first fundraiser for our K-9 Medical Miracles Program:

Attendance was high – we had approximately 90 to 95 folks during the course of the evening – Thank you all who bought tickets, even if you were not able to attend.

The party (as you will see, it was just like a party – good food, good friends, good music, and of course, good wine) got started right away, and continued until the doors were closed at 9:00 PM.

And we are very pleased to announce with the online donations, Silent Auction proceeds, and Winery event purchases, we raised over $ 5,900 for our K-9 Medical Miracles Fund, which will continue to help Senior and Special needs dogs – by providing necessary medical care to make them adoptable from the shelters and get them into their local rescue or a new forever home. Thank you one and all!"

Thus began our annual "Sips for Senior Dogs" event at the Olney Winery. We did have to go virtual in 2021 to 2022, but we were back live in 2023:

From Oct 2023: "We had a fantastic time last Sunday at The Olney Winery fundraiser. I was so pleased at the turn out! And the silent auctions and 50/50 raffle were a huge success! It was the first time in 4 years we have done this, and it was just great to see such response from our friends, family and supporters. Thank you all who came and/or who donated."
