On Wednesday, Feb. 1, the business will host a fundraiser at the Fitton Center and will be joined by a veterinarian who has worked in Haiti for the past 10 years.
Made to Love co-founders Tony and Christin Harris and Shari Miller have teamed up with Dr. Kelly Crowdis, an American veterinarian, who is working to eradicate rabies in the country.
Crowdis also helps to develop agriculture and reforestation in the country, according to Tony Harris.
“She works to provide sustainable development in Haiti,” Harris, also a Hamilton firefighter, said.
Her program, Give a Kid a Kid, also teaches children about raising goats. The project provides sustainable income for families who can use the goat’s milk and sell its offspring.
The non-profit’s fundraiser, called “Shoot for the Moon,” will take place from 6 to 9 p.m. Wednesday at the Fitton Center, 101 S. Monument St., and will benefit the work done by Crowdis and the international group Retavek, which is working to stop child slavery in Haiti.
“We hope to raise a lot of money to support Kelly and the work she does,” Tony Harris said.
Tickets can be purchased for $20 at Made to Love, 6 S. 2nd St., or for $25 the night of the event. Children ages 12 and younger are admitted free.
