Charity of the Month: November

SHOPPING HERE HELPS HOUNDS! This month ALL PROCEEDS  from the Handmade4Hounds Shop on Etsy, minus fees, will be donated to

The Greyhound Alliance

The Greyhound Alliance is dedicated to greyhound welfare, facilitating greyhound adoption and furthering education and support for greyhound owners, potential adopters, and the community at large. Whether through education, fundraising, or more hands-on efforts like transport and placement, we are committed to doing our part.

 

The Sunburst Project was developed as part of The good work of The Greyhound

 Alliance, and was designed to move Florida retiring greyhounds to non-racing

 states.  The Alliance opened its Sunburst Kennel at the Ebro Greyhound Park in

 the Florida Panhandle on August 1, 2011, with the goal of finding homes for as

 many retiring racing greyhounds from the Florida tracks as possible.  Since

 then, The Project has moved over 3,000 retired racing greyhounds from our

 Sunburst Kennel to 35 adoption groups in 22 states and Canada — an

unprecedented record. The Project has grown to include taking in retiring racers

 from all of the Florida tracks.  For more information, please visit their website

Charity of the Month: September

SHOPPING HERE HELPS HOUNDS!

This month all proceeds, minus fees, from the sales in the Handmade4Hounds Shop on Etsy will be donated to Greyhound Alliance for The Sunburst Project (www.greyhoundalliance.org).

The Greyhound Alliance is a 501(c)3, all-volunteer organization that has recently helped establish The Sunburst Project, a combined effort of three non-profit organizations: The Greyhound Alliance, The Northern Consortium and the Emerald Coast Chapter of Greyhound Pets of America. The groups will provide funding made possible by donations, expertise and volunteers to insure the care, transportation and adoption of retired racers from JCKC, Pensacola, Ebro and Mobile tracks. The Sunburst Project Kennel located at Ebro Greyhound Park, takes in overflow greyhounds from the Panhandle tracks on an as needed basis. The kennel serves as a staging point to provide veterinary care for the retired greyhounds, including physical exams, spay or neuter procedures, vaccinations and preparation for transport. We intend to assist with shelter and adoption of as many greyhounds as space and resources will allow. Since the project began in August of 2011, we have transported almost 1,000 retired racers to various adoption groups throughout the country and Canada.


Everything in the Handmade4Hounds Shop is donated by Etsy artists and crafters to help hounds. Please visit our website for more information  www.Handmade4Hounds.com
