Our local ferret shelter,
Ferrets Unlimited Rescue Services, is eligible to receive a grant of up to $20,000 from
The Animal Rescue Site.
They are hosting a special challenge for eligible Petfinder.com member shelter and rescue groups. The grand prize is a $20,000 grant, and they will be awarding many other grants to rescue groups with the most votes — a total of $100,000 in grants for animal welfare organizations.
Think how many Cleveland ferrets they could help with $20,000!
To help them, simply visit the website and
click to help rescued animals, and vote in The Animal Rescue Site $100,000 Shelter+ Challenge. Both of these actions are absolutely free! You can vote once a day, every day, until December 20, 2009. Every time you vote, or tell a friend to vote, you are helping shelter pets.
With the current economy, Ferrets Unlimited, as well as many other local animal rescues have seen an increase in animals surrendered by families that feel that they can no longer support their pets and by families who have lost their homes and cannot find housing that allows pets.
This is an easy way to help a local charity without spending a dime. Just visit the
Shelter+ Challenge page and enter Ferrets Unlimited Rescue Services, and select Ohio in the state field, in the purple box under Search and Vote for a Shelter and click the Search button. Then you will see Ferrets Unlimited Rescue Services and a button to Vote for them. You may vote once a day!
This year marks our 20th annual Bowl for Kids' Sake event-don't miss out on fun for the whole family! Join us for free food, drinks, T-Shirts, entertainment, exciting prizes and the satisfaction of knowing you've helped make a striking difference!
