PSWCS.org Joins Forces with Pets for U.S. Vets for 2016 Charity Drive
For immediate release: May 30, 2016
PSWCS.org and the Pennsylvania Star Wars Collecting Society are joining
forces with Pets for U.S. Vets, a program of the Washington Area Humane
Society in Washington, PA. Pets for U.S. Vets places dogs and cats with local
veterans, free of charge. All animals are spayed or neutered, up-to-date on
vaccinations and micro-chipped.
Pets for U.S. Vets was started by Suzi Smith in 2010 and she has worked
tirelessly since then to secure funding to cover the costs of the free
adoptions. Now in its sixth year, the program is averaging 50 adoptions per year
to veterans.
To raise funds for Pets for U.S. Vets, PSWCS.org will be selling a limited
run of 1,000 medallions featuring C-3PO from Star Wars™: The Force
Awakens. This will be the sixth medallion and charity that PSWCS.org has
partnered with.
Each medallion has been cast in gold toned metal and features C-3PO on the
front along with the date and name of the charity, Pets for U.S. Vets.
The back will have the PSWCS logo.
The medallions will be sold online for $12.50 each, including shipping.
The medallions are fully approved by Lucasfilm and will be accompanied by a
Certificate of Authenticity and receipt as they are tax deductible.
The medallions will go on sale on May 30, 2016 on the web at
