Bank surprises Weaverville woman with $25,000 to help pets

WEAVERVILLE – Last month, cosmetology student Samantha White of Weaverville thought she was going to TD Bank to do the employees' hair for a banking convention. She left with $25,000 and a plan to help our four legged friends. She had 24 hours to spend the money.

"It was probably the most epic day ever just to be able to give back and do so many good things," said White, who was chosen for the project after taking part in a survey commissioned by TD Bank where customers were asked to identify what they would do to help their community if they had $30,000 to spend in just one day.

White was one of 24 customers selected across North America for the project.
