SANDY MITCHELL CIRCLE OF FRIENDS
ABOUT SANDY MITCHELL
In 2009, the Board of Directors approved the creation of the “Sandy Mitchell Circle of Friends", a legacy group designed to encourage and recognize individuals who during their lifetime, or through a testamentary provision, name Cape Ann Animal Aid as a beneficiary in their will or estate plan. Sandy Mitchell passed away in 2007 and was a longtime friend and Board Member of Cape Ann Animal Aid.
Those who knew Sandy might remember her as a “rough winged angel” with a huge heart. Sandy named Cape Ann Animal Aid in her will to leave a lasting legacy by continuing to provide for the animals she so loved during lifetime. Naming the Circle in Sandy's honor was a natural fit to honor her legacy and encourage others to do as she did. Executive Director, Sunniva Buck, a close friend of Sandy recalls, “Sandy believed that people could change and do the right thing if put to the test.” And doing the right thing - to ensure and protect your passion for animals when you are no longer able to - is what the Sandy Mitchell Circle of Friends is all about.
