Commitment to Animals
Most of you are aware that Gorb and I have done a couple little projects to help keep supplies and funds rolling into IMOM's Diabetic Pets Fund. Many of our friends have relied on IMOM for assistance and even more of our friends are IMOM Volunteers! So who better to help out on a regular basis? Nobody :) But, at the request of some of our elves we will be expanding our efforts to also now include Petsmart's Animal Charities. Each campaign will clearly identify who the effort will benefit and we hope you agree that as long as it benefits animals in need - its a worthwhile effort!
Below is a timeline of future projects Gorbzilla.com will undertake. There's also a brief description of each project (some are $, some are supplies, some are TBD). Suggestions and helper elves are always welcome! Each quarter we're planning a "big campaign" and a "little campaign".
If you'd like to become part of a project, please send Gorb an email to discuss.
