Real quick, hopefully you've noticed the links to various children's charities on the right side of the blog under the "Give" section. All of them are beyond worthy and would greatly benefit from anything you may be able to spare.
The last link, to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) may seem out of place - but I assure that couldn't be further from the truth. To many, pets are children. Plain and simple. Additionally, the majority of households have at least one pet - typically a dog or cat - and children come into contact with that beloved family member everyday.
In such, they should see that these innocent creatures need love, support, shelter and food just like any boy or girl. Moreso, because they are domesticated, they are usually completely dependant on their owners (AKA moms and dads) to care for them.
The kiddos need to know and understand this in order to stop the cycle of cruelty from continuing. Remember, a pet is someone's child, too.
Ha, I feel like this was an NBC "The More You Know" spot...
