A heartfelt THANK YOU to Lacey for turning her birthday into a celebration of kindness! 🎉 Instead of receiving gifts, Lacey asked for donations to help the animals at our shelter—and her generosity has truly made an incredible impact. 🐕💚

Happy belated birthday, Lacey! We are so grateful for your support and for choosing to make a difference.
