Fontana – The 5th Annual Wigs ‘N Weaves & The Natural You “Evening of Mental Wellness Edutainment” has teamed with Ms. Nanczi Greenwood-Skufca, Executive Director of 4Paws & A Cause to raise awareness regarding elder mental health and wellness, and the role pet companions play to reduce depression and loneliness.
With fifteen percent of US seniors 65 years and older living in poverty, there is a need to address essential resources, in addition to mental well-being and economic sustainability. The event will provide a great opportunity to support local seniors by donating pet food and supplies to low-income seniors with pet companions.
Pet supply donations will be accepted during the “Pet supplies for seniors with pet companions” event on Saturday, November 18, beginning at 4pm at the Steelworkers’ Auditorium, 8437 Sierra Avenue, Fontana.
