Schubach Aviation Top Fundraising Team at 5K Puppy Run/Walk

SAN DIEGO – (January 13, 2011) – A team of 9 Schubach Aviation employees and their family members were honored as the top fundraising team at the second annual Helen Woodward Animal Center 5K Puppy Run/Walk held February 13 along a scenic, coastal route in Solana Beach, Calif. The Schubach Aviation team raised the largest amount by any corporate team.

This year’s Helen Woodward Animal Center 5K Puppy Run/Walk had more than 600 participants and raised over $40,000. “Supporting animal welfare in our community is very much a part of our company’s culture, so it was great for our employees to be able to ‘give back’ in a fun and meaningful way,” said Henry Schubach, president of Schubach Aviation. “We’re looking forward to our company’s continued involvement with Helen Woodward Animal Center, and participating in their future events.”

As part of a year-long fundraising campaign benefiting orphaned animals, Schubach Aviation, San Diego’s premier air charter company, earlier this year pledged to donate to Helen Woodward Animal Center one cent for every mile flown by its fleet of 20 private aircraft during 2011. While the company has pledged a minimum of $8,000, it hopes to raise closer to $12,000, based on current mileage trends. Schubach Aviation also is giving its customers the option to match the company’s “one cent per mile” donation by contributing to one of three non-profit organizations of their choice, Helen Woodward Animal Center being one of them.

“We’re grateful to the many individuals and our corporate sponsors, like Schubach Aviation, who stepped up to make the 5K Puppy Run/Walk a success,” said Mike Arms, president of Helen Woodward Animal Center. “Participation was almost four times greater this year than last, which speaks to San Diego’s community spirit and its dedication to helping rescued and relinquished animals.”
