You like dogs? Let’s raise some money

If everyone who visits the blog today donates a few bucks we can blow the doors off this fundraiser.  It would also be helpful if you share this on your facebook page.

 

THE STORY:

I am running the 2013 New York City Marathon so I thought while doing that why not use the blog to raise some funds.  Even just $5 from a bunch of readers will go a long way.  Thanks in advance!

Since I’m a dog-lover I thought I’d raise money for St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center, a nonprofit dedicated to the humane treatment of animals.  Services include pet adoption and rescue, animal assisted therapy, humane education, dog training and pet loss support.  I do a lot of my log runs past their property and am impressed by the amount of are and volunteerism I see – like I see people take these older dogs that might never be adopted (as is often the fate of older dogs) for long walks.  The dogs seem to have a good life and are cared for.

Some of you donated last year and then Sandy happened – I thank you for your contributions then and if you’d care to contribute again that is much appreciated.  (That’s why your name is showing up in the scroll over there in the right sidebar.)

If you’d like to donate the widget is in the right sidebar or click here.  Thanks!
