"At BJ's, we're committed to keeping families – including our pets – happy and healthy," said Kirk Saville, executive director of the BJ's Charitable Foundation. "BJ's is proud to support local organizations like Mid-Atlantic German Shepherd Rescue that help place dogs into loving homes."
At today's check presentation, President Monty Moore of MAGSR accepted the donation from Rich Amigone, general manager of the BJ's Wholesale Club in Westminster.
"The Mid-Atlantic German Shepherd Rescue is humbly honored to have been chosen by BJ's Wholesale Club as their charity recipient and for their support with pet products," said Monty Moore, president of MAGSR.
