Help MuttShack Save Lives In Hurricane Ike

Subject: URGENT, PLEASE HELP!
MuttShack responded valiantly to Hurricane Gustav, assisting Louisiana with:
* Over 120 trucks
* Trained volunteers
* Rapid Deployment Teams of Incident Command people
* Post storm rescue
* Mass care and sheltering teams
MuttShack worked with parishes throughout LA to rescue, repair and transport animals to safe locations in at least five states around the country. We worked with many partner organizations and value our associations.
PLEASE HELP US DEFEND ANIMALS DURING HURRICANE IKE:

Both MuttShack and Kinship Circle volunteers — coming from as far away as Canada, east and west coasts — have expended travel funds and transport expenses far beyond expected. Moving our people and assets is expensive and we NEED YOUR HELP!
This is a perfect way for those of you not able to give of your time ‘on the ground’ to make your voices heard. You can be a benefactor to the cause and enable another to be your hands in the field.
WE CAN SAVE LIVES WITH YOUR HELP!
