Recycled furniture sales part of animal shelter’s unique fundraising

Recently, animal shelter Tails of Hope posted a photograph of a pair of quaint looking chairs on Facebook that had been made from recycled pallets. The chairs were for sale, with the proceeds going towards the shelter’s work.

Whoever buys these chairs provides income for the contractor, funds Tails of Hope’s care for rescues, helps the environment by using recycled furniture and gets beautiful chairs that provide comfort and create a picturesque arrangement.

Tails of Hope was founded in the latter part of 2019 with most of its members already attached to other shelters. A year ago, the shelter contracted a contractor to assist with fixing broken kennels or constructing new ones among other odd jobs.
