Pots for Paws, a program that Seneca Valley High School ceramics students participated in this year, has been considered a success.
The high school students created a variety of artwork that was sold or donated to the community. They were able to sell handmade water bowls and other items to raise over $1,000 for the Montgomery County Humane Society.
The water bowls that were not sold were donated to the shelter, where pets will be able to use the items on a daily basis. The Humane Society shared the following on social media, “A huge thank you to our friends at Seneca Valley High School for these beautiful handmade water bowls! Your creativity and support means a lot to our residents.”
About: The Montgomery County Humane Society is the largest animal welfare organization in Montgomery County, providing rescue and care to homeless animals. They offer a full range of services including adoption counseling, humane learning, community outreach, volunteer training and much more.
