check out Phelan's blogathon!

"Love dogs? Love Veterans? This is the charity for you!!!"

 companionsforheroes.org 

"CFH is an organization that provides companion animals and skilled companion dogs, obtained from shelters and/or rescues, free of charge to active duty military personnel, military veterans, and first-responders recovering from the psychological challenges they suffered during service to our country. 

C4H increases public awareness of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injury (TBI) and other challenges confronting our country’s heroes; and rally’s support for animal welfare and the adoption of shelter and/or rescue animals."

doesn't that sound like a great organization?


my friend Phelan is doing her yearly blogathon this year on June 30, beginning at 6am in the morning. she will spend the next 24 hours posting every 30 minutes. you can go to her blog and make a pledge here.


she doesn't collect any money - you make a pledge and, after the blogathon is over, you go directly to the CFH website and donate there.


we have supported and pledged to Phelan in the past - won't you head over and make a pledge. and be there for her on June 30, providing her with virtual coffee and keeping her awake?

Edited to add: i forgot to mention she has some really great prizes!

    2. Huzzah! You are so welcome. I think everyone should yell that at least once a week in a public place.

  4. SUPER easy to donate (I'm an overachiever and didn't wait till the Blogathon was over.) They're set up to take a donation through Paypal or you can mail a check. I'm thinking Phelan is gonna totally rock this Blogathon and I'll end up donating again - will have to wait and see what the wallet tells me at the time. But you should DEFINATELY check it out.
