Angel's Wish Auction - Just 2 Days Left

If you're looking to snag a deal while helping to support a worthy animal welfare organization, check out the Angel's Wish Online Auction. They have hundreds of items, from jewelry and gift certificates to collectibles and pet items.

Angel's Wish is a nonprofit organization located in Verona, Wisconsin, a stone's throw from Madison. Some of their most important work includes finding homes for unwanted animals, acting as a resource for animal welfare issues, and reducing animal overpopulation, here in south central Wisconsin. They have a Pet and Resource Center, run microchipping clinics, and offer cat nail trimming sessions.

This is all amazing, but more so when you learn Angel's Wish is an all-volunteer nonprofit. Their annual online auction is one of their biggest fundraisers.

All Purchases Benefit Born Free USA/API month of July

My very first blog post!

What a better way to kick off than by telling you about our fundraiser benefiting Born Free USA united with Animal Protection Institute. For the entire month of July, 2009, twenty percent from all sales will be donated to this wonderful animal welfare organization - minus shipping and sales tax.

For a small organization with about 17 paid staff, BFUSA/API advocates for animals on a variety of issues including the international wildlife trade and exotic animals kept in captive situations. They also operate the Born Free USA Primate Sanctuary, which houses over 500 non-human primates, many of whom were rescued from abusive situations. They are at http://www.bornfreeusa.org

I'm proud to be affiliated with them.
