It has been my pleasure to help Voiceless-MI where I can. For example, I have given them dog bowls and beds for a shelter that had none, helped fund veterinary services for foster dogs, and donated items for their wildly successful yard sales. But in reality, they have helped me far more than I have ever helped them. They helped a dog named Mikki who was looking for a home (and whom I was trying to help) get some much needed exposure. They helped me find a foster home for a homeless senior beagle... a foster home that led to a permanent home (her new family named her Matilda). They helped me make a plan when I found a lost MinPin wandering my neighborhood in the middle of winter. In that case, Spike's daddy found us the next morning, but if he hadn't, I know they would have helped me with him. These are just a few examples. Voiceless-MI has one of the best multifaceted approaches that I have ever seen in a grassroots organization. All of their actions serve as proof of their beliefs, values, and goals. They foster and find homes for animals who are at risk in other facilities because they recognize there are animals who need help right away. They make it easier for people to keep their animals with them (and out of shelters) by helping with veterinary costs and by educating people about pet care/ownership. Voiceless-MI understands that fewer unplanned litters mean fewer animals needing homes. To that end, they are working with All About Animals Rescue to offer low cost spay & neuter opportunities to people in mid-Michigan – transportation included! They work well with many other organizations, both large and small, and understand the value of networking and cooperation. They have been instrumental in gathering support for, and educating the public on, various pieces of animal welfare legislation... and getting that legislation passed. In short, Voiceless-MI knows that by using a variety of approaches, they can truly become a voice for the voiceless. And I will continue to help and support them whenever I can.

Val with HART is so amazing and dedicated! Through HART she helped a friend who is financially challenged get her cats fixed, shots,etc., and she personally provided all transportation ( a pregnant mom, her 4 young kittens and a young tom). She has since followed up with the situation, helping with sick kitties (medicine, wormings), treating the animals herself. She even treated this lady's neighbor's cat! Plus, Val keeps me informed of the contacts. Hart has paid for all. Val responded immediately when I first called about my friend in need. Excellent!!!

Can I actually say something, here? Okay, I'll speak the truth, understanding that this review will be deleted by those in control of this "review", because I speak the truth. "Bloggerpower.org" is nothing more than a tool of the socialist network. One look at ANYTHING they DO or SPONSOR would inform any idiot that this is an extremist and dangerous propoganda tool.

The pet project for pet provides a wonderful and much needed service to the community. By providing pet food & supplies to people who are medially or financially challenged they enabled them to keep their pets thus keeping animals out of shelters and their home.

The Rogue Valley Humane Society in Grants Pass, Oregon is a NO-Kill, nonprofit animal shelter. From the first time I went to the shelter I found the most caring staff members. And it shows with the cats and dogs that are living there. First off, it was SO clean and cheery everywhere. It had to be the best smelling shelter I have ever been in. When you go into the dog kennels you see wagging tails and smiling faces. It is the same thing when you go into one of the cat rooms - friendly and ready to snuggle cats and kittens. The staff and volunteers are devoted to the animals in their care. It really shows! If you EVER thought about donating to an organization that protects animals this is the one for you. Check out their online website: rvhs-or.org and you can see it first hand. If you get a chance to see The Truman Fund video on their facebook page get some kleenex out. It does have happy ending! All I can say is they are the BEST! I am proud to be a volunteer of this great organization. If you are ever in Grants Pass come for a visit! You will be so glad you did.

I found out about Pet Project for Pets at a parking lot sale. After a short time of checking it out I found it to be an excellent charity. They're helping a lot of people who if we didn't help would lose their animal(s). That's the main reason I volunteer. I was in a situation a short time ago where I had to figure out how to keep my dog. I wish I had known about an organization like this then.

Youthlinc is the most amazing organization out there. I am so grateful to have been a part of it. There focus on making you lifetime humanitarians truly changed my life. I was able to complete 100 hours of community service at the Sandy Boys and Girls Club of America, where I worked with Kids less privileged. Upon completing my 100 hours of service, I received a $1,000 sponsorship towards the cost of my trip. I was able to travel to the most amazing place in the world, Kiamuri, Kenya, and work with the people there. It was a cool experience for me, because you are part of the people for 2 weeks. Its not some tourist site. You are part of the village for 2 weeks, sleeping where they sleep, eating what they eat, helping them out in their schools, building classrooms and, and much more. The village accepts you as their own. I have never met more loving people in my life. Its because of Youthlinc that my life has been changed in so many ways. Thank you Youthlinc. I would also recommend this program to EVERYONE! I can only imagine the impact it would have on the world if it was a national program.

Although I was a board member of Animal Humane|New Mexico, I had resisted adding an additional pet to our home for years. Once the Cat House opened up at the Virginia Campus, my resistance was won over. The Cat House offers four individual rooms with outdoor patios for the cats to play in and show their real personalities to potential adopters, and also to show how well they get along with other cats. As I already had one cat at home, it was important that the new cat had good social skills. After visiting all four rooms in the Cat House, a beautiful gray cat, who had obviously been "on the lam", won over my heart with his sweet nature. The set up of the Cat House allowed me to visit with a variety of cats at my leisure, and find one that was just right for me. As I was leaving town the next day, Animal Humane|New Mexico made arrangements to take care of "Scout" until I could get him to my house. Dr. Neal went over some concerns I had about introducing Scout to my current cat - time well spent. I am grateful to Animal Humane|New Mexico for being there to take in strays like Scout, who once they are placed in the right home are valued members of the family who are taken care of the way every animal deserves to be taken care of.

I have been a contributor to this organization and I can tell by their dedication and sincerity that they are doing an extremely valuable service to neglected, abused and unwanted horses. I applaud them and their committment and sacrifice so these beautiful animals can have the lives they so richly deserve.

I first became aware of the wonderful work that PHH does for horses after hearing about the organization on RFD-TV's Ken McNabb Show. He said that he had adopted some horses from PHH, so I looked into the organization and saw how dedicated and caring the volunteers are to helping the horses find good forever homes. PHH truly cares about these animals. I hope that anyone looking for a horse will consider adoping one from PHH.

The Pet Project provides the means for people who are financially or medically challenged to be able to keep their pets. In so doing it keeps pets out of shelters or worse while preserving the human / animal bond. The Pet Project is a unique organization and I personally experienced the importance of it's work when I delivered pet food to a few of the disbled clients and listened to their stories about how much their pets mean to them. One client told me that an alarm had gone off in her home while she was sleeping, her dog woke her up and in the dark guided her to the front door. Fortunately, there was no emergency in this case but had there been it was her pet who would have saved her. When I have looked into the eyes of the peole we serve and their pets I can see the greatfulness they have for what we do at Pet Project and for me it is the most rewarding work I have ever done.

Since she has posted a phone number to answer the critics, perhaps the director of public relations, Donna McArdle, can answer one question that's come up around the hospital this week: Is it true that John Ernst, the CEO of the hospital, is getting a retirement "bonus" as part of his contract, of $600,000/year for an undisclosed number of years to serve as an outside "consultant" for Deborah from his retiree home in Florida, after December 31, 2010? So, this person who was responsible for bringing the place to its current financial mess, will continue to collect huge sums of money to "guide" the place, after he has retired and left? Next question: Is this hospital Board both blind and retarded, to allow this to happen, when the place is in deep financial trouble, with a total debt estimated at $40-50 million?
