The $25,000 will be distributed to the Peterborough Humane Society’s Our Pet Project capital campaign to build the Peterborough Animal Care Centre (PACC).
In recognition of this donation, the Memorial Patio will be named The Friendly Fires Patio. This Gift will also be recognized on the Donor Wall located in the lobby of the new PACC as ‘Alex Soubliere & Family / Friendly Fires’. The Friendly Fires Patio will be utilized for education sessions, business meetings and for staff and public use.
“We are so very fortunate to have such a dedicated, hard working and committed team at the Peterborough Humane Society that goes above and beyond caring for animals. The fact that they have spearheaded an initiative to have a new world class animal care facility built right here in our city is a testament of just how great this team really is,” said Soubliere. “My entire family, including our Portuguese water dog Olive, is very happy that we could help contribute to the new Animal Care Centre and we hope this helps encourage others to do so as well.”
