Sharp Facets Pet Food Fund Raiser

Sharp Facets Gallery is joining efforts with Food Lion and their April Pet Food Drive for the Humane Society of Greenwood. During the month of April, for every purchase from, or sale to, Sharp Facets they will donate money towards the purchase of pet food from Food Lion! Anne Eller says “Every bag of food will make a difference and we just thought why not be part of a great campaign with Food Lion to stamp out hunger at the Greenwood Shelter.”
