Artwork for Animal Charities


For the last couple years or so I have been a member of Etsy For Animals, a nonprofit organization of international artists who regularly donate proceeds from our artwork from our online stores on Etsy.com to animal charities. Every month, we select a Charity of the Month to donate to.

EFA Artists Helping Animals' January charity of the month is: Humane Society of Missouri http://hsmo.org I am moved to donate to HSMO because I read about their incredible rescue in TIME magazine of 500+ dogs from a fighting ring - the largest dog fighting rescue in U.S. history, and saw portraits and descriptions of the dogs who were rescued here:


The Humane Society of Missouri is in dire need of support from animal lovers and charities as they seek to find loving homes for and rehabilitate these tortured creatures.

Here's where you can find beautiful handmade items and artwork to benefit our Charity of the Month: http://tinyurl.com/yembbbb
