For now, my plans are on hold as the amount of free time I have available is less then what I had anticipated due to my current involvement with the National Marrow Donor Program following my cousin Tami's illness and need for a stemm cell transplant. You can visit her website at HelpingTami.org.

Part of the Solution: The Cutest Dog Ever Spay and Neuter Fund

I truly believe that the best way to help stop animals from being euthanized in shelters is to address the source and help lower the number of unplanned litters of puppies bred each year. In the future I would like to dedicate my efforts to begin a non-profit program* raising funds to help pay for the altering of pets belonging to those who, for a multitude of reasons, want to spay or neuter their pet(s), but simply can't afford to.

The CDE fund will donate 100% of the funds collected to pay for 100% of the altering fee for those selected to benefit from this program. All I will request in return is a photo of each pet to post here on this page so that those who donate can see the actual animals altered through their donations. Currently this has created a glitch as I have not had the time to implement the program myself and the Shelter by law, cannot request photos of the beneficiaries of the fund.

To date the CDE Spay & Neuter fund has raised $1760.00 that I am hoping to implement into a working fund as soon as possible.
