Give to charity on a budget with the Power of Paws
We all know how bad the economy is these days. That makes it very hard for people to give up their precious money to charity. It's not because we refuse to donate...it's just that we need money for food, which is rising in cost, and mortgage/rent etc... Heck! I wish I could donate more than I do but with rising vet bills with Marcie there's no way.
Speaking of her...she had to get another enema yesterday but I'm saving that story for another post (no time since I'm at work). But here's one of my favorite pictures of her because you just can't have enough pictures of the Marcie girl.

But here's the perfect way to donate to an animal charity without annihilating your pocketbook. I'm definitely going to write up several stories about all the animals that have touched my life (there are many...Marcie being no exception!!).
Here's the info:
As we all know the holidays are a time of giving, but with this economy not everyone can afford to join in the giving spirit. This year, let your memories make a difference. Power of Paws gives people the chance to still get that warm fuzzy feeling of helping a worthy cause, without ever opening their wallet.
The Power of Paws program (CLICK HERE!) enables dog, cat, hamster, lizard and even ferret owners to help raise money for pet related charities this holiday season. All you have to do is submit
your own "tail" of how your pet (past or present) has helped you in your life. For every story submitted (even a couple of sentences!) Power of Paws will donate $1 to a pet related charity. Every story matters and we know there's a million to share. And if you're feeling stumped, log onto the website to read some of the "tails" submitted so far.
So get out there and write your stories! You don't even need money to do it...just an imagination, a computer and keyboard and there you go! Get writing!!!



I think this is a fabulous idea. I love your blog and all the great things your promote.
Yeah, this is a great idea! I have tons of great animal stories!
In related news, I may be getting a job interview for a Petsmart store. This could be a really fun place to work at! Only thing is it's about 15 miles west of where I live so I don't know how easily I can get there. But I'm definitely checking it out!
Heheh! If you get the job then maybe they'll allow you to transfer to the Canoga Park one eventually. Good luck!!!
