“Integris takes great pride in supporting such a venerable, respected organization as the Atlanta Humane Society,” said Integris President and CEO Hamish Davidson. “For more than a century, they have worked to end pet homelessness and overpopulation in the southeastern United States.”
This year’s walk, one of AHS’ largest fundraising event, started at Atlantic Station where thousands of animal lovers and their dogs walked for a worthy cause. All net proceeds will help save the lives of Atlanta’s homeless animals.
“The Atlanta community has been responsible for our success, and we are always looking for opportunities to give back to that community,” said Davidson. “The AHS walk affords us an excellent opportunity to do just that.”
