BlueGrace Logistics Donates 65K To Humane Society Of Tampa Bay

BlueGrace Logistics announced Monday morning that, in addition to the $5,000 raised in their annual “Cats vs Dogs” food drive this spring, they will make a donation of $60,000 to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay.

The $65,000 donation will not only help to feed the thousands of animals held in the shelter each year but will also get HSTB closer to their $11 million goal to cover the costs of their new shelter.

The Humane Society of Tampa Bay began construction on their brand new, 42,000 square feet, air-conditioned shelter this year with a demolition day in April. The new shelter will help HSTB save 2,000 more animals annually

What I love about Bobby [Harris], his family and all of you guys is that you’ve stuck with us.

Sherry Silk, CEO of Humane Society of Tampa Bay, stopped by BlueGrace Logistics’ Tampa HQ Monday morning to accept the donation. She spoke to the employees about the ten-year partnership between the shelter and third-party logistics company. “What I love about Bobby [Harris], his family and all of you guys is that you’ve stuck with us,” Sherry explained.
