We Love Strays & Gays shirts by the Humane Society are back by popular demand
DAVENPORT — In response to public demand, the Humane Society of Scott County in the Quad Cities is reopening for its “We Love Strays & Gays” shirts, first introduced during Pride Month.
The shirt sales help fund the shelter’s needs at a time when shelters nationwide are overloaded and short on resources, staff, space and funding.
In addition, half of all sales go to the Clock Inc. LGBT Community Center in Rock Island, which serves all of the Quad Cities and neighboring counties.
Proceeds from the shirt sales are divided between the Humane Society, and Clock Inc. LGBT Community Center.
