A gofundme drive has drawn more than $160,000 in donations to rebuild the Bahamas shelter where more than 90 dogs and cats died in floodwaters from Hurricane Dorian.
USA TODAYA gofundme drive for the Humane Society of Grand Bahama had drawn more than $160,000 in donations Tuesday to rebuild the shelter where more than 90 dogs and cats died in floodwaters from Hurricane Dorian.
The Humane Society's Facebook page chronicles the devastating progression of the waters into the shelter. The group's team of six survived the storm – but only after lashing themselves together and swimming to higher ground, according to one post."I am not quite ready to speak at length about our horrific losses but please know we are all heartbroken and traumatized" an entry posted Saturday states."Your love and concern is so appreciated.
Two hours later a post asked for"immediate help" from rescuers, saying six people were caught in neck-high water. Three days later, the losses inside and outside the shelter were coming to light. Five of the six shelter workers lost homes in the storm.
