A Goat at The Davenport!

Today at the Davenport Offices we were graced with the presence of a goat! Our Marketing Director, Matt Jensen, was the lucky recipient of the cutest baby goat I have ever seen.

Why was a goat in our office, you may ask? Actually, it's for charity. Wishing Star of Spokane is going around local offices in Spokane to try and get donations to help two little boy's wishes come true.

Josiah (12 years old) and Brandon (9 years old) both suffer from major illness and health issues. Josiah has multiple heart complications and Brandon has rhabdomyo sarcoma. The two boys share in the same wish to meet Star Wars characters and the Wishing Star Foundation is trying to grant their wish by sending them to Jedi Training!

The object of "Send a Friend A Goat" is for Wishing Star to present the goat to a person and if he or she doesn't want to keep the goat, they can offer a $50 donation and pass the goat onto someone else! The donation can be a compilation of multiple people chipping in to reach $50.

But how cute is the goat!?! Here is a video of Matt receiving the goat. (He used to raise goats growing up!) BTW-The goat peed on the floor before he exited the building. I guess he was marking his territory-We are Pet Friendly!
