Pose for PAWS: Fundraising for the Animal Shelter
Posted by siyerwin on Saturday, July 12, 2008 at 7:15 PMHere's an invitation from The Philippine Animal Welfare Society for a fundraising event. Please do check it out and support it. The direct beneficiaries would be the shelter animals.
POSE FOR PAWS at Eastwood City on July 20
SAY “CHEESE” !!!
Are your pets ready for their close-ups? If so, then head on down to Eastwood Central Plaza on July 20 (Sun) for the launch of “POSE FOR PAWS”. Anytime from 1-6PM, you and your pet can get your portraits taken in our unique photo booths manned by professional photographers.
Proceeds from all portraits purchased will go to the PAWS Animal Shelter which houses over 100 dogs and cats rescued from cruelty and neglect. The facility is not funded by any international organization or the government, and is solely dependent on donations and fund raising activities such as this to keep it running.
Last year, despite its limited funding, the PAWS Animal Shelter was able to spay-neuter 298 animals, respond to over 2000 calls from pet owners and animal rescuers, adopt out 30 dogs & 28 cats and rescue 42 animals in distress. Its humane education volunteer group has already reached over 5000 students and 28 schools - teaching kids and young people about kind treatment of animals and responsible pet ownership.
“POSE FOR PAWS” is made possible with the help of Eastwood City, Frontline, McDonald’s and the Philippine Star Pet Life Section.

Please do not leave your email or contact numbers in the comments. Email me directly at sherwin @ mefindhome.org if you have concerns or questions. This blog is increasingly attracting breeders/pet sellers trying to advertise their business through the comments and I don't want that. The blog seems to also be becoming a bulletin board of sorts for people who wish to abandon their pets. Blogger.com allows no way to edit your comments so there I have no other option but to delete comments that I deem inappropriate in this regard. I apologize for the inconvenience. Again, if you have any questions/concerns, better to email me at sherwin @ mefindhome.org than to comment here. Thank you very much!

Hi How can I make a donation? Im in the US and wants to help. I went to the website PAWS, but you can only make direct deposit to BPI. Thanks

hi, Maria. sorry for the late reply. you can try Paypal. it's another way to send money electronically. if you still don't have a paypal account, you can open one. Link is on this blog's sidebar. You could also wire the donation to the BPI accounts.
