Giving Back
A Special Place in My Heart
In 2015, I started donating a percentage of my monthly profits to animal welfare agencies in the Tri-Cities area. Doggies, in particular, have always held a special place in my heart. So, I’m very pleased to finally be able to donate in this way as it has been on my To Do List since starting up my ‘lil art biz. Many thanks to all of you for helping make this happen. 🙂 Area agencies on my donate list:
- Mikey’s Chance
- Benton-Franklin Humane Society
- Pet Overpopulation Prevention
