Friends and neighbors make thier way to Elaine Hetu’s home in Conway for Presents for Paws, a party to celebrate the season and offer donations of money and supplies for the Waccamaw Animal Rescue Mission (W.A.R.M.) Hetu, who had come to the area on vacation eight years ago, promptly returned days later, a 600+ mile journey, to rescue Sadie, a Bernese Water Dog she had met at a W.A.R.M. adoption event at Inlet Square Mall.
