A GoFundMe campaign has been created to help rebuild Alymer’s SPCA animal shelter that was destroyed by fire on Monday night, causing almost $600,000 in damage and killing several animals.
The fire occurred just before 11 p.m. when people driving in the area saw flames shooting from the building at 659 rue Auguste Mondoux, near the intersection of chemin Pink and chemin Vanier.
Gatineau fire crews braved the intense heat and managed to rescue 12 dogs. By 3:45 a.m. the blaze was under control, but the two-storey structure was destroyed and an unknown number of animals perished.
Given the SPCA is a non-profit organization — and receives no government or public funding, relying on adoption fees and donations only — a GoFundMe campaign has been created.
The campaign administrator, Samantha Rock, set a $100,000 goal. Over 24 hours $3,255 had been raised by 73 donors.
“As an animal lover myself I started this campaign in hopes to raise money so we can rebuild this SPCA,” said Rock in a statement on the GoFundMe page. “100 per cent of donations will be made to the SPCA of western Quebec.”
