We will have numerous pet angel trees located in the Tri-Cities area for the holiday season. Each tree has tags with one of our animal’s names, along with a specific need. There are also tags for supplies for the rescue. We invite you to visit a tree location, pick a tag, purchase the needed item, and return it to the tree. We appreciate the support from all of these businesses that host a tree, and encourage the community to patronize them. The animals thank you too! Trees will be available Thanksgiving through December, with exact dates varying by business location.

Giving Tuesday is December 1. Giving Tuesday is a global movement that encourages people to give back to their communities on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It’s a day for generosity through donations, volunteering, or acts of kindness, and serves as a counterpart to the consumer-focused shopping days of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The day, started in 2012, aims to highlight the importance of charitable support for nonprofit organizations and inspire year-round generosity.

Monetary donations can be made on our web site, or a check sent to us at The Bridge Home No kill Animal Rescue, P.O. Box 654, Blountville, TN 37617.
