Hope & Healing for a Tiny Pup Named Maple

by Ariel Spicer

A heartfelt thank you from A Home 4 Spot Animal Rescue reminds us how every single gift can change a life. This local area Las Vegas nonprofit shared a $678.88 donation from the Wynn Resorts Foundation ($339.44 from employee donations and $339.44 from the 1:1 Wynn Resorts corporate matching gifts program) made an immediate impact for a litter of newborn puppies that were abandoned without their mother. One of the pups, Maple, was born with a serious infection under her eyelids that could have affected her vision. The Wynn employee donations and corresponding company match helped cover the specialized care Maple needed to grow strong and thrive with her siblings.

The rescue team is bottle-feeding Maple and her siblings around the clock - comforting and monitoring their progress until they’re healthy enough for adoption. Knowing that Wynn employees donate to help animals like Maple means the world to the A Home 4 Spot staff, who want to share their gratitude with Wynn employees.

A Home 4 Spot is a volunteer-based organization that provides foster care and medicine while seeking permanent homes for abandoned dogs

If Wynn employees are inspired to do more for their favorite nonprofits, remember – donations made via the Wynn Resorts Foundation are matched $1 for $1 (up to $75,000 per employee per calendar year) for eligible nonprofits – magnifying impact to nonprofits in our community.
