Animal Rescue of Texas has committed to working with the Humane Society of the United States to collect supplies needed for the animals that have been displaced by Hurricane Katrina. Many animals have been separated from their owners and either need to be reunited with their owners or placed in new permanent homes. Needed items include: collars, leashes, harnesses, wire crates, Clorox, Clorox wipes, etc. Volunteers are needed to help coordinate this effort, which involves making flyers for donation boxes; putting together donation boxes for area businesses and stores; coordination the placement of donation boxes; picking up the donated items and getting them to the central dispersal location; writing press releases and getting them out to area media.
