RANCHO SANTA FE, Calif., June 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- It has been nearly a year-and-a-half since the war began in Ukraine and Helen Woodward Animal Center, along with supporters and friends, helped raise over $356,000 to assist with orphan and displaced pets in need.

The resulting massive flooding has forced thousands of people and animals to flee their homes, necessitating the evacuation of local shelters throughout the Kherson region. Helen Woodward Animal Center is pledging another $35,000 to support flood relief efforts and is asking the community to match the amount.
