Thanks to the efforts of Nicole Norstrud, SETLA members and other LM Aero volunteers turned
out to help Antelope Valley Dog and Cat Rescue. AV Dog and Cat Rescue is a 501c(3)
organization located in Pearblossom and is home to about 50 each dogs and cats.
Our volunteers joined with others in clearing the grounds, watering trees, digging trenches,
repairing kennels, walking dogs and organizing food and materials in storage sheds.
Velma Drever is the founder of AVDCR. She is a VERY energetic woman whose mission is to
provide for abused and neglected animals. Saturday happened to be her birthday (she won’t
say how many) so we all joined in for a slice of birthday cake and a wonderful chili lunch
provided by other volunteers. Since SETLA had already funded the lunch, Nicole turned over
the money as a donation to AVDCR.
Vilma’s good works have also come to the attention of the community. LA County Supervisor
Mike D. Antonovich sent his representative Norm Hickling to present an award to Velma and
AVDCR. To say that Velma and her staff were overwhelmed by the volunteer work and
attention is very much an understatement.

AV Dog and Cat Rescue’s mission:
To provide a safe harbor for all of our animals. To make them feel as loved and as safe as
possible. To rehabilitate them through love, trust, devotion, and proper care so they may find a
loving home where they can become a loving family member. Some of our animals will never be
able to be placed in homes outside our rescue, due to the severe abuse they have endured.
Our goal for these animals is to make them feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible,
while they stay with us for the rest of their natural life.

Toys for Troops:
SETLA successfully completed the
Toys for Troops Project, which sent
over 200 donated toys to our troops
in Afghanistan. The purpose of the
project was to provide our soldiers
with small toys that they can carry
in their pockets or back packs to
hand out to the local children where
they are stationed. This will help
build good relations with the local
citizens. Most of the donations
came from the members of SETLA and their friends. The largest single donation
came from the Lockheed Martin Leadership Association.
