The first note is from someone who had set up a lemonade stand with a few friends at Adanac and Windermere streets on March 21, thanking customers for helping to support the SPCA.
鈥淚 want to thank all the people who supported our lemonade stand,鈥� reads the note. 鈥淓specially my family for making this possible, and Dereck, the owner of Windermere Market, that helped us when we ran out of cups.鈥�
Posted below that note on the street pole is a letter from Craig Daniell, BC SPCA CEO, sharing his appreciation and how their donation helped save animals like Peter, a cat pictured in the letter.
鈥淲ith your gift of $66.56, you have given an animal like Peter a chance at finding their happy ending,鈥� he writes.
Daniell says Peter was only a few weeks old when he was thrown from a vehicle and suffered a severe leg injury that required surgery. He has since made a full recovery and found his 鈥渇orever home.鈥�
As for the group who ran the lemonade stand, according to the note, they have plans to return.
鈥淲e鈥檒l see you in the summer.鈥�
