Gifts with added meaning

Valentines day

Celebrate a loved one's birthday, applaud a graduation, honor the memory of a good friend,  pay tribute to a parent for Mother's or Father's Day, extol the virtues of a special pet, commemorate any special occasion with a brick in our Memorial/Tribute Brick Walkway.

Giving the gift of a brick in our Memorial/Tribute Brick Walkway is a wonderful way to create a lasting impression and will help a needy animal become a cherished pet. Your brick will be etched with a permanent message of love, celebration, memory, or tribute and placed carefully in our beautiful walkway. Beginning at the Carol Steiger Memorial Garden just outside the north wing, the brick walkway will continue to grow every year, winding its way through the grounds of the Pet Adoption Center.

We are currently accepting brick orders for the 2009 installment of our brick walkway.

The deadline for ordering bricks has been extended to August 1st!

People in whose honor gifts are made will be notified immediately of your meaningful contribution. The bricks will be installed in the fall - date to be announced. 

A traditional 4x8" brick is available for $100 and the larger 8x8" brick is available for $200. All proceeds go toward supporting our mission of protecting companion animals, preventing animal cruelty and overpopulation, and promoting responsible pet stewardship by providing education, counseling and training to nurture and enhance the human-animal bond.

To order a brick(s), visit our website at www.spcaonline.com/walkway.htm, print and fill out the form and mail with your payment to:
