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
