For the Revew
Volunteers from the Friends of Leverington Cemetery recently teamed up with the Andorra Kids group to add a touch of color to the pre-Civil War burial grounds on a gorgeous Spring day. The call to action was spearheaded by Nancy Fetsurka of the Friends of Leverington Cemetery and Andorra Kids administrator Sharon Schultz.

Along with the planting of dozens of daffodils donated by John Lynch of the Secret Garden along the fence and in tomb cradles, the work force of 30 avid volunteers cleared weeds from grave stones and filled eight large trash bags of debris from the grounds. The trash bags were hauled away courtesy of Eddieâs Landscaping.

Unfortunately due to the COVID situation, the Andorra Kids had to cancel their Fall Reunion and animal rescue fund raising endeavors. So, when COVID hit, they hit back by selling Andorra Kids logo masks, bandanas, and lanyards to raise revenue to support animal rescues that have been hit hard by circumstances relating to the virus.
Jim Mitchell, Sharon Shultz, and Lisa Collins drove the initiative through contactless pick-up and drop off. Items were also mailed to Andorra Kids who no longer live in the area.

The Andorra Kids are proud that three of the organizations that they support (Delco Dawgs, Aardvark Animal Rescue, and Delaware Valley Golden Retriever Rescue) will be the recipients of over $900 to help animals in need. Extraordinary health conditions can run providers $2,500 and upwards, depending on the dogâs need when they are brought in.
