Integris Team Contributed Nearly $3,000 to the Annual Event,
which Supported 30,000 Animals Last Year
Atlanta, Georgia – October 24, 2017 – Integris®, a provider of IT support, strategy and services for small and medium-sized businesses and nonprofits, recently participated in the third annual Atlanta Humane Society (AHS) Walk for the Animals, held Sunday, October 15, 2017. For the 5K fundraiser, the Integris team was one of the “Top Teams,” ranking in the top 10 among fundraisers.
“Integris enjoys showing its support for our home city and state—and for such a respected, proactive organization as the Atlanta Humane Society,” said Davidson. “For more than a century, they have worked to end pet homelessness and overpopulation in the southeastern United States.”
This year represents Integris’s third time participating in the walk, which has become one of AHS’ largest fundraising events. This year, thousands of animal lovers, with and without their pets, descended on Atlantic Station to walk for a worthy cause. All net proceeds from the event support AHS services, which in 2016 helped 30,000 animals—the most in AHS’ 143-year history. Vital services the walk supports include animal placement, education, rescue and wellness, including these yearly accomplishments:
- Placing more than 10,000 animals into new homes
- Performing more than 13,000 low-cost spay/neuter surgeries
- Working with local animal control agencies to rescue animals in immediate danger
- Providing humane education programming to children, teens and adults
“The Atlanta community has been responsible for our success, and we are always looking for opportunities to give back to the organizations that support it,” said Davidson. “The AHS walk affords us the perfect opportunity to do that, while helping our furry friends, as well.”
