+ PICS! Get a grant to go to Louisiana to do animal rescue, or volunteer/donate to help others go now! +PLEASE pass on to others who might be interested!
After our trip to Louisiana for animal rescue I know how badly volunteers are needed. It's important for the people (no one wants to come home to their emaciated dead animal, and to be able to come home at all we must make the streets safe):
I've started a grant program to cover rental car/gas and or airfare and vaccinations, supplies, etc. for people wanting to go to Louisiana or Mississippi to help with animal rescue but truly not having the funds (students, non-profit employees, self-employed, under/unemployed, newly married/getting married etc.)
WE HAVE ONE GRANT READY TO GO! APPLY NOW IF YOU CAN GO!
If you'd like to go, or would like to make a contribution for others to go, let me know!
Applicants, volunteers and donors can e-mail me at [email protected] or call me at 646-285-6282
APPLICANTS must have evidence of interest in animal welfare (animal centered experience, volunteer work or degree. volunteer work can be as simple as volunteering at a shelter or doing TNR) or have very strong non-profit/volunteer history in humanitarian work. Resume, references required. 10 days or more to give before the end of November (that'll give at least a week of volunteer time, plus travel time). Willingness to travel alone, live without much in the way of common amenities, to work long, long days, to work with others in a high stress environment and from all backgrounds. Must be mature, flexible and able to handle one-self in difficult situations. Must have cell phone and be willing to check in regularly (I will also keep tabs with the assigned rescue group).
Applicants can go for 10 days up to 3 months.
Grant amount will depend on length of commitment. Multiple placements available (I have connections in the shelters, with Alley Cats and with some rescue groups on the ground).
DONORS: Just need to be willing to make a donation from $1-1000.
Donors can wait until recipients are chosen and give money directly to them, to the rental car co/airline or buy supplies needed buy volunteers such as welding gloves, anti-bacterial wipes, etc. Or, general donations can be made and if there are any left over they will go to Alley Cat Allies, Mutt Shack, or Noah's Wish - all doing good work down there but needing more people.
Larger donors can have a say in which applicants are chosen.
VOLUNTEERS HERE: I need help getting the word out to potential donors/applicants, coordinating with the rescue groups, coordinating most affordable airfare, car/gas etc. I am self-employed as a campaign consultant/fundraiser and would be able to offer an INTERNSHIP to someone willing to work on this regularly.
This is time sensitive, animals are dying every day. Please help in some way now if you can. Thanks! Moria
