Today we welcome Tori Fugate, KC Pet Project Chief Communications Officer, to discuss an exciting new initiative. Human Animal Support Services (HASS) is an animal welfare organizational model that will implement a new range of services for pets and people in 12 pilot cities, helping keep more animals in their homes and communities and reducing the number entering the shelter system through programs and resources.

Follow KC Pet Project on Facebook and Instagram.

Another wonderful way to support Rosie Fund and create beautiful artwork of a beloved pet is to book a session with Claire Shelley at BLegendaryPhotographyCreations.com. For every referral from Rosie Fund, Claire will donate $100 or 10% of the order total, whichever is greater. This does not apply to designated fundraising campaigns like the Pooch Playoffs that already support charities or to the gift vouchers that Claire donates to the Rosie Life Starter Kits.
