Today, I want to introduce you to an important initiative.

Anishinaabe and Awesiinyag (AAA) in partnership with Four Winds Canine Connections are holding a winter pet shelter building event, in partnership with the Aanjibimaadizing Ge-Niigaanizijig youth program in Mille Lacs.

Over the course of a few days, AAA and Four Winds will empower their local communities to prepare for the winter ahead by teaching them to build warm housing for their pets.

AAA is an incredible nonprofit whose mission is to provide support for people and animals on the Mille Lacs Reservation.

Four Winds Canine Connections mission is to assist in cultivating meaningful relationships between people and dogs.

At the BUB Fund we know one of the best way to care for companion animals is to help the folks who love and care for them. Helping create safe and secure winter housing for pets allows animals to live their best lives in a warm and safe environment and allows for the folks who care for them to rest easy knowing their loved companions are safe and warm.
