Paws Unlimited helps out when older dogs are abandoned because they can’t see or hear or need extra care, or when a family member goes into a nursing home or passes away.

House for Dogmanity and Restore Thrift Store

The House for Dogmanity and Restore Thrift Store non-profit is located on Foxhall Avenue in Kingston. Like children, puppies outgrow various items: collars, crates, beds, etc. When they get older, they need senior items such as stairs, orthopedic beds, slings, carts and more. The House For Dogmanity and Restore Thrift provides these goods at an affordable price. Most of the goods are donated and in very good condition — some new or slightly used. They are then sold to the general public at reduced rates, and profits from the store are donated to support dog shelters and dog rescues in the Hudson Valley. The House for Dogmanity is run by volunteers of the dog world. We all find a ways to give, from our dogs to yours. Everyone should be able to afford a pet!

Donation to the March of Dimes

A donation of $3,417.16 was made by Kimlin Energy Services to the Hudson Valley March of Dimes at the annual March for Babies fundraiser on May 15th at the FDR State Park in Yorktown Heights. The event is part of Kimlin’s ongoing support of the local March of Dimes by making a donation for every gallon delivered by Kimlin’s specially-branded “March for Babies” propane truck. This marks Kimlin’s 10th year in ongoing support of the HV March of Dimes, spearheaded by longtime employee Perry Kimiln. Perry was joined in donating the check by volunteer Gregg Isaacson, Annette Trotta Flynn of the March of Dimes, and Ben Newman, also from Kimlin. Thank you for your incredible efforts to help babies and their families.

Kimlin Energy looks forward to continuing its relationship and support of the March of Dimes, and invites everyone to consider helping – it’s a national, non-profit organization established in 1938.
