Australia Animal Relief Effort

Australia Animal Relief Effort

Melissa Sheketoff is looking for your help! She met Megan Cochran, a Southington native, who organized a local effort to send donations to Australia February first. More than a billion animals have died since the wildfires sparked in September. There are efforts to rehab and rescue many more animals, which is why we need your help! There are drop off locations in upstate Connecticut, but to collect donations in southern Connecticut, Melissa has set up a drop off box for donations at our office here in Milford. You have until January 26th to drop off items, Melissa will then drive them upstate on the 27th. Thank you!!

Here is a list of the items you can donate:

  • Bandage Materials (ace wrap, gauze, medical tape)
  • Burn Cream
  • Neosporin
  • Medical Gloves
  • Disinfectants

Drop off locations:
– Connoisseur Media, 440 Wheelers Farm Road, Milford
– Diversified Kitches, 43 Huntington Street, Shelton
– Kitchen Corner, 2359 Black Rock Turnpike, Fairfield
