These are hard times for
all businesses - possibly even more so for non-profits. We are all feeling
the effects of the present economic situation.
In addition to giving IMOM
an economic boost the same thing will happen for another animal welfare
organization. 25% of out profits will be given to a winning 501(c)(3)
animal welfare organization.
This contest has multiple
purposes and goals. When we have a fund raiser at IMOM we like for our
visitors to walk away with something besides just a receipt for their donation.
If you care to read
further I'm going to talk about our purposes and goals for this contest.
The menu on the left will enable you to navigate to rules and instructions if
you'd rather take the short cut.
Purpose - To
replenish our General emergency fund
Donations to our general
funds as well as donations to our PIN kids are at an all time low. We
watch our spending and approve only those cases we feel really, really need
help. We are trying very hard to keep our doors open through this economic
crisis. It is getting more and more difficult as donations continue to
drop.
Goal: raise a minimum
of $15,000
Purpose - To award a
LUVBUG grant to a winning animal welfare 501(c)(3)
The LuvBug Grant is
awarded to 501(c)(3) animal welfare organizations at the discretion of our Board
of Directors.
IMOM will be honored to
award 25% of profit from this contest to the winning animal welfare
organization.
Goal - a minimum
GRant of $5000
Purpose - To
demonstrate the joys of adoption
Whether your adopted pet
was found as a stray or adopted from a shelter or rescue, they were once
homeless - and you have a story to tell. A story of how your adopted pet
has enriched your life.
Those who have never
adopted a pet have no idea what they've missed! Perhaps you will be the
one who convinces our readers the adopt!
Goal - for one person to choose the adoption option
Purpose - To
demonstrate the extraordinary bond one shares with a special needs pet
Often times, a pet with
special needs is euthanized simply because no one wants to accept the
responsibility of their care. Sometimes, not even the family they have
spent their lives with.
If you have ever had a pet
with special needs you know about that extra special bond. It's a bond
that makes all the special attention so worth while - for both you and your pet.
Goal - for people
to consider adopting a pet with special needs
