A national fundraising event is coming up to benefit the A.W.O.L Humane Society in Independence.

 

Jordan's Way, the national tour founded by Kris Rotonda, is bringing its high-energy fundraising event to A.W.O.L this Thursday, October 2nd from 6 to 9 p.m. Rotonda says more than $16,000 was raised for the Independence shelter last year.

 

Rotonda's stop in Independence is part of a multi-state tour that includes Arkansas, Oklahoma and Kansas. He says the one-of-a-kind live fundraiser will feature lots of high-energy fun.

 

The fundraiser will be streamed live on Facebook, allowing supporters near and far to participate by donating and sharing the event link. Every dollar raised will go directly toward the care, medical needs and adoption programs for the animals of A.W.O.L. at 116 S 23rd St in Independence.
