Sedona AZ (September 14, 2016) – The Humane Society of Sedona Paw Prints Thrift Shop in VOC will be welcoming students from Encinitas CA for a special clean-up event on September 20, from 4-6 PM. Held in conjunction with Keep Sedona Beautiful, student volunteers from the Grauer School of Encinitas, CA will join local volunteers to trim, clean and beautify the Thrift Shop’s frontage landscape along SR 179, Village of Oak Creek.
Grauer School Students take two expeditions per year, with a student body of 150 students fragmenting into approximately six different groups that head all over the US and abroad to experience different cultures and contribute through community work.
“We’re so fortunate to have been selected for this project. Our store will look more welcoming to customers which will hopefully result in more shoppers and ultimately more income generated to support the lifesaving work of the Humane Society of Sedona” said Austin Gates, Executive Director of the Humane Society of Sedona.
Special thanks to our event sponsors: Village ACE Hardware who have generously provided work gloves, hand-tools and supplies; and Famous Pizza for providing pizza and beverages for the students. For more information on this volunteer project or other volunteer opportunities at the Paw prints Thrift Shop in VOC, contact Michelle Newman at hssmnewman@gmail.com.

Donations of quality items are welcomed and accepted at the store and pick-up of larger items is available. Volunteers are also welcomed and appreciated. There is a sister thrift shop in West Sedona in the Harkin Plaza at 2081 W. 89A, #11.
