Ace Hardware
January 9, 2012
An animal rescue group in Detroit received the kind of news that every nonprofit organization longs to hear. An anonymous donor is giving it $1.5 million so it can build the city’s first no-kill animal shelter, in honor of a dog the organization tried to save.
Detroit Dog Rescue was founded only nine months ago by TV producer Monica Martino and hip-hop artist Daniel (Hush) Carlisle, but the group gained national attention for trying to stop Detroit Animal Control from euthanizing an emaciated pit bull dog that wandered into an Ace Hardware store in early November.
