To give is better than to receive. There is no replacing the satisfaction of offering a helping hand to your neighbors, your friends, or local charities. Donating money, goods, or simply your time to a cause that supports those in need is rewarding in its own right. But what if you could give with the chance of getting something back? Something more than the uplifting feeling you receive when you help someone in need? Toyota is partnering up with the Arizona Humane Society to do just that.

The Arizona Humane Society and Camelback Toyota recently hosted a pet adoption event right here at our dealership. It is estimated that each year, approximately six million pets are surrendered to shelters. Another sad statistic states that as many as four million of these animals are euthanized because of lack of room in shelters and a lack of interest from adopters. For dog lovers this is heavily felt, so through this event we aimed to increase awareness of pet adoption and raise money for a great cause.
