Please Join creativePAW to Help Animals
It’s finally done…the site for my new organization, Creative Professionals for Animal Welfare (creativePAW). The organization’s mission is to help animal welfare organizations find creative professionals (such as writers, editors, illustrators, and web designers) who are willing to do volunteer work to help with the orgs’ marketing, education, fundraising, and PR efforts.
Please check out the site and join the database…it’s free (obviously) and simple, and you can choose to take on only the volunteer work you have time for. You don’t have to worry about spam if you join the database, as animal welfare orgs have to join and be approved before they can search the database.
According to the Humane Society of the United States, a homeless companion animal is euthanized every eight seconds in the U.S. creativePAW’s mission is to help animal welfare organizations publicize their causes and educate the public about homeless pet issues. So please, sign up and get involved! Also, please do send this note on to the other creative professionals you know: editors, proofreaders, translators, voice talent, illustrators, photographers, PR people, etc.
Thanks so much!
Linda

I’m especially interested in promoting the no kill movement. This is a wonderful idea, Linda, and a great way to connect people who want to help!
