Its never a bad time to take good advice

This was in my facebook inbox late last night from the Beulah Burman's PET Projects (BBPET) facebook group:
2009 is nearly behind us, and what a year it has been!
We're happy to report that BECAUSE OF YOUR PARTNERSHIP...

• emergency foster care was provided for 118 homeless cats and dogs
• 108 adoptions of foster animals were facilitated to forever-families in Shelburne County, Yarmouth County, the Valley, Halifax, PEI and even Newfoundland!
• over 100 cats and dogs were spayed/neutered
• 26 feral (wild) cats in local colonies were trapped/neutered/returned
• lost pets were reunited with their owners
• private rescuers and pet owners in need were able to access crucial services such as emergency vet care subsidy, food and supplies, and re-homing resources including advertising and PET Matching
• hundreds of people experienced the joy of welcoming a deserving dog or cat into their family!

And so we thank you for your part in this great mission; through networking, encouragement, incredible volunteerism by wonderful and committed animal-lovers, and faithful financial and material giving, we are truly making a difference in Shelburne County and beyond. We look forward to continued partnership in the New Year!There are still some ways we can all contribute in 2009!

There are a few days left for year-end giving, and you can donate online (http://www.canadahelps.org/CharityProfilePage.aspx?CharityID=d56997) and receive a printable charitable receipt via email which will mean a tax break come April! We also have some wonderful adoptables who would love to have new homes for the New Year --- if you know of someone thinking of adopting a pet, please direct them to www.petprojects.ca!

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead

Here's to changing the world in 2010 - one animal at a time!

Now THIS is putting facebook to very good use! P.E.T. PROJECTS is also ringing in the new year with a great newly revamped site .... they are so engaged in creating a better community ... one paw at a time ... that they simply outgrew the old site.

And of course, the way time runs away on us all, its very sensible for every non profit group that can offer a tax receipt to remind its supporters that the deadline for deductible donations is midnight tomorrow.

What time is it? Clearly P.E.T. PROJECTS felt it was time to take Nathan Winograd's words to heart " Do a good job, tell people about it, and ask for their help"
