OK, it’s my turn to promote my cause. On the first Saturday of May each year, GoodDogz.org teams up with Myers PR, the Reston Town Center and RestonDogs to host the annual Reston Pet Fiesta. The event annually draws about 8000 metro DC residents to the Reston Town Center for a day of pet adoption, family fun and a kick ass dog walk. The Pet Fiesta is GoodDogz.org’s primary fundraiser of the year and this year we need your help more than ever. With giving down and pet surrender up, everyone in the animal welfare sector is struggling and GoodDogz.org wants to help bridge the gap where we can.
We’ve spent a lot of time lately helping place dogs left homeless by the economy. We are also working diligently to help families that want to keep their dogs make arrangements. We need your help to continue doing what we do.
By making a $10 (or more) donation to our dog walk, your money goes directly to this mission. It’s tax deductible and can easily, securely be made by Visa, MC, Amex or Discover through Firstgiving.com. Our organizational goal for the event is $10,000. My personal goal is $1,500 – aggressive but attainable with your help.
It’s easy…
- Go to http://www.firstgiving.com/bethbates and make an online donation OR
- Go to http://www.firstgiving.com/GoodDogz, set-up your own pledge page and start collecting pledges.
You can also attend and participate in the ‘Tails on Trails” dog walk if you are in the DC area. We welcome you!!
And last, but certainly not least, if you own a business, you can be a dog walk sponsor by making a donation and receiving promotional considerations. Sponsors need to be signed up by March 21.
A gazillion thanks to everyone who supports GoodDogz.org everyday and a hearty WOOF to our new supporters!
THANK YOU!
