For the last 7 years we've been partnering with Funds2Orgs to help raise money for Animal Village New Mexico.​ We earn $1000 every 2500 pairs collected, which funds 25 surgeries every time we do that! It's a lot of work, and we appreciate the help of Christopher Wright of Ruidoso, our Board President, who is now managing this program! Our collection boxes are currently located at the following businesses:
Otero County: White Sands Mall inside by ATM, and Alamogordo/Tularosa First Savings Banks, and Southern New Mexico Surgery Center.
Lincoln County: Ruidoso Community Center, Ruidoso Athletic Club, First Savings Bank, and BLue Lotus Day Spa.
If you know of a high traffic business location where we can place a shoe collection box, please phone us at 575-415-8310!
