that can be reserved for animal care and programming. To access a list of the items on the Cleveland APL Animal Care Wish List visit ClevelandAPL.org and BeckCenter.org. Donations may be dropped off in the orange tub located at Beck Center’s main lobby during
the run of <i>Annie</i> from December 6, 2013 to January 5, 2014. Every donation is great appreciated throughout the holidays and this season of giving.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
