My Story…

Anyone who knows me knows that I am a huge animal lover!  For this reason, I am raising funds for an animal organization that I believe is a huge assistance to our community pets.  I have visited and volunteered at this organization and truly believe they live their mission daily.

Help me raise money for Animal Friends in Pittsburgh.  Animal Friends is a non-profit, no-kill organization that provide support to community members and their pets, house animals in need and assist to find loving long-term and permanent homes for dogs, cats, and rabbits.  They collect donations through their chow wagon, support veterinary care to families in need, and also provide workshops and community events to assist in teaching proper care for our animal family members.  

Mission statement: 

To rescue, rehabilitate and rehome animals in crisis, ensure healthy pets through education, advocacy and affordable services, and inspire a community where the animal-human bond is celebrated and nurtured.
