Shoppers can also donate for the “Betty White Challenge,” a call to donate $5 to local animal organizations in Betty White’s honor on what would have been her 100th birthday on January 17. Donations can be accepted in the store or online at https://www.blueridgehumane.org/donate/. All proceeds directly support Blue Ridge Humane Society’s work to rescue animals and provide animal support services for pets in need.
