Businesses support school’s pet farm
Pet Helpers Rescue & Adoption Shelter presented Jane Edwards Elementary School with $2,000 for the operational expenses of the school’s pet farm. After four teenagers vandalized the elementary school’s pet farm, killing and injuring several animals, community animal lovers from Edisto Island to North Charleston gave donations ranging from hundreds of dollars to pennies from allowances to help rehabilitate the school’s compound. Lois Lane, of Lane & Smythe Real Estate, gave $500 to enhance the quality of the school’s farm.

Two local businesses contribute to Crisis Ministries
Glasspro and Stealth Concealment Solutions Inc. donated money to Crisis Ministries. Glasspro pledged $5,000, and Stealth Concealment Solutions, which designs, engineers and fabricates antenna concealment screening systems for the wireless industry, pledged $4,000. Donations were made through The Corporate Table campaign, a peer-to-peer effort encouraging the local business community to help their colleagues make a positive impact on homelessness and hunger.
