The fires inCreekCountyhave been devastating for all involved. Tulsa SPCA realizes that some families have lost their animals, but are springing into action to help assist families that need help the animals that were saved. The MAC will be parked on the Drysdales parking lot from 7:30am to 6:00pm to allow people to drive by and drop off donations. Our goal is to fill the MAC completely up with supplies, like we did for theJoplintornado relief. We plan to drive the MAC to the fire zones on Thursday. We are working with Oklahoma Alliance for Animals, OAA, to determine the areas most in need of supplies.
Tulsa SPCA will be accepting monetary donations to cover supplies that are not donated on Tuesday , such as medical and others. You can drop off money at the MAC tomorrow, make an online donation at www.tulsaspca.org (be sure and memo it as “Creek County Relief”), or mail a check to Tulsa SPCA at 2910 Mohawk Blvd, Tulsa OK, 74110 and memo the check as “Creek County Relief”. We will make sure the money goes to the animals in Creek County.
