GALT's 11th Annual Fundraiser Dinner and Gala Fundraiser
Save the Date and Buy Your Tickets
Our theme this year is Faith, Hope, and Charity, in honor of three of the many abused injured Greyhounds cared for by GALT over the past several years; Faith, a severely underweight female missing her right ear, was removed from a hoarder (along with her eight puppies). Hope, a heartworm-positive stray, was found curled up in a ball on the grass strip between the parking lot and the access road near a busy highway on a freezing morning. And, Charity, one of ten heartworm-positive greyhounds received by GALT in January 2012, has several wounds and very thin fur on her back.
