A grieving mother has made a $300,000 donation from her late son’s life insurance policy to the Animal Friends Alliance, a no-kill animal shelter in Fort Collins, Colorado. Jason Telleen, who passed away in January 2023 due to an accident, had a passion for animals, prompting his mother, Patricia Telleen, to honor his memory through this contribution. The donation will assist the shelter in completing the purchase of additional property, which is expected to significantly benefit the welfare of around 14,000 animals served annually. Patricia expressed that doing something meaningful in her son’s memory has provided her with a sense of peace amid her loss.
