Rose 9/11 A Day of Service

Good morning family

Whether you voted for Obama or not, whether you "like" him or not, no matter where you stand....he has asked for 9/11 to be a day of service.

I take it beyond him, and think about all of those dear lives lost on that day...particularly the heroic passengers on the flight in the field in Pennsylvania.

So here is my challenge to you. For several months now I have been saving my daily papers for the local humane society. I plan to go to work on 9/11 and after my shifts are over I will pick up my girls and we will deliver these papers to the humane society to make bedding for the dogs.

Speaking of bedding....my next door neighbor lost her beloved Keeshond..Shadow. I went to the humane society website and donated an elevated doggie bed in his memory for some unfortunate animal who does not have it as good as my girls.(They send a very nice acknowledgement of your contribution to the family you are honoring)

They also asked for cash, old papers, and binders, and of course they love to have you volunteer your time as well. There are many things you can do to help your local humane society.

OK back to the challenge....I would like all YT members to honor the memory of those who died that day by doing something, anything related to our furbaby friends on that day. THere are many things out there, just look. Even if you just send your local shelter 10.00 on that day, it's easy, just a few clicks and a credit card.

What an impact YT could make on this day....please post what you might do, or did do in this thread, and I am sure it will be such an outpouring of love it will be incredible.
