Greene Donates to Veterinarians for CPL Program

On Oct. 30, SCI Greene Superintendent Robert Gilmore and Kayla Shaner, the Canine Partner's for Life (CPL) program administrator, presented the Waynesburg Animal Hospital with monetary donations that were collected by staff and inmates. The veterinarians provide an array of services for the puppies that are trained at the institution to become service dogs as part of the CPL program.

SCI Greene staff donated $550, the prison's inmate organization matched the $550 donation and also held a fundraising event which collected an additional $500. In total, $1,600 was donated to the animal hospital. The fundraisers were organized to express gratitude and appreciation to the local veterinarians for their services and continued dedication to the animals and to the CPL program.
