Blalack’s Paws for the Cause Raises Funds for Needy Children

Blalack Middle School’s community service organization,”Paws for the Cause,” filled 32 boxes of brand new items to fulfill the wish list for Our Friends Place (OFP). OFP is a local Dallas shelter for abandoned, abused and neglected young girls. Paws for the Cause also provided $500 in gift cards for the shelter. Students contributed by purchasing toiletries, clothing, school supplies and other items for the organization. Students donated spare change Dec. 6 – 13, adding up to $500. Sue Hesseltine, Executive Director of OFP, visited Blalack on Dec. 16 to meet with Paws for the Cause and thank them for the positive impact they have made in assisting those in need.
