Gulf Animals in Need of Our Help

In light of the ongoing, and seemlingly unending tragedy in the gulf, I have decided to give 10 percent of my Etsy earnings to a much deserved charity,  Defenders of Wildlife .  As a teenager, I was a member of this organization.   Months ago I became a member of Etsy for Animals, and since part of being an active member of this worthwhile group of animal lovers is to give to an animal related charity,  I have decided to once again focus on Defenders.   I hope anyone who reads  this will somehow give to the gulf oil spill tragedy clean-up.  Some of the ways you can help is by shopping at Etsy, and search for Team EFA, to see what handmade goods you might find that members have to offer.  Or you can give to your own animal related charity, it does not have to be Defenders.  Every bit helps.  I also urge you to consider joining EFA yourself, and see how good it feels to give part of yourself.  These animals need us. Please do what you feel you can.
