On December 2, ADR founder Arthur E. Benjamin lent his fundraising talents to a "Hope For The Holidays" telethon with KUTV 2News This Morning to benefit The Humane Society of Utah. During the 2-hour event, generous donors called in with more than ,000 to help Utah animals in need.

"We had a lot of fun doing this telethon and, more importantly, raised funds to do very important work to help animals," Arthur said. "I'm very grateful to all who donated, and the animals most certainly will be as well."
