Due to sudden unavailability of drivers for the June 28 - 29 transport from South Carolina for Darlington Express, one person stepped up to make sure all the dogs and cats made it to their destination in the north. Belva, a volunteer who transports regularly, was firstly responsible for getting some cats who had been dropped at the Humane Society, onto the transport. Their fate, had they remained at that Humane Society, would have been very doubtful.

Furthermore, Belva was one of the van drivers who was making the long haul from South Carolina to Pennsylvania. Once she learned of the unexpected shortage of drivers, Belva bravely made the additional commitment to stay overnight that Saturday night in Pennsylvania, and to deliver all her barking buddies to their rescues, which took her all the way to Buffalo, New York on Sunday! This was way beyond the call of duty, and Belva is a real inspiration to those who care for the welfare of homeless animals and are dedicated to finding furever homes for them all.
Here are some of the rescues Belva changed her life around for that weekend. Although they are caged, it's the only safe way to transport, and of course it's a small price to pay. Being left behind just isn't an option for anyone with Darlington Express.
Then, of course, Belva had to make the long, long trek back to South Carolina. But she didn't return empty-handed. Supplies had been donated to the South Carolina shelter, so she packed her van and headed south.
