Dr. Joseph Valese of the Animal Hospital of Mount Pocono delivered 500 pounds of pet food on Aug. 12 to the Animal Welfare Society of Monroe (AWSOM) Animal Shelter of Stroudsburg.The food was donated by the Animal Hospital of Mount Pocono and Hills Pet Nutrition. During the month of July a facebook campaign was held by the Animal Hospital of Mt. Pocono. By using social media between the Animal Hospital of Mount Pocono clientele and the fans of AWSOM Animal Shelter new “likes” were generated which translated into the pounds of pet food.

Many dogs and cats will be fed at the shelter because of the success of this social media campaign.
