Paws for a Cause-Guyana Inc (PFAC-G) yesterday hosted its first event to raise funds to build a shelter for stray animals.

The event, which was held at the Georgetown Cricket Club Ground, follows on the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the non-profit organisation and the Ministry of Public Infrastructure (MoPI) last Monday to make roads a safer place for animals.

The MoPI provided the organisation with two locations, which are at Den Amstel, West Coast Demerara and Paradise, East Coast Demerara, where they can build two animal shelters.
