More than a quarter of a million empty cans (a total of 321,021 to be exact), dropped off by Bellevue area residents, have resulted in more than $16,000 to help animals in need, with most of that being donated to the Jackson County Humane Society during the past two years. And the cans and the donations keep on coming. The large amount of funding was made possible by Corey and Brittini Peters of Bellevue, who created the Cans for Paws organization on May 12, 2024.
