PARKE/VERMILLION COUNTY, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) — Local humane societies are preparing for what they hope will be a big fundraiser with help from “Jordan’s Way Charities.”
After his four-legged best friend Jordan died, Kris Rotonda founder of Jordan’s Way Charities, started this charity with the goal of raising awareness for pet adoptions and helping fundraise for humane societies and animal shelters.
“Kris wanted to get out there and provide awareness adoption and try to raise money, much needed money especially now for COVID for these shelters,” said Bruce Deutsch, director of public relations and scheduling for Jordan’s Way Charities.
During stops, Rotonda will interact with animals at the shelters and staff to complete fundraising goals.
Throughout the rest of the week, the tour will make stops at Parke-Vermillion, Clay and Greene County Humane Society.
“We’ll be using the donations for animal care as far as basic spray neuter vaccines adoptions and then anything that comes up medically wise,” said Parke-Vermillion County Humane Society.
Jordan’s Way is currently on a 50-stop tour across the country with Indiana being its 12th state.
