Every year I do exactly one charitable thing.
On May 5th I’ll be walking (I think it’s two miles) with my dog, Lil’ Miss Meepers, and a few thousand other dogs and owners for Anti-Cruelty. It’s called Bark in the Park, and it goes to support the largest no-kill animal shelter in Illinois.
Look, I don’t care if you beat dogs personally, buy them from puppy mills, or train them to fight in cement pits. Your business is your business. I ain’t wearing white on my wedding day either, understand?
But for dogs that are abandoned or rescued, yeah, they deserve a chance. Anti-Cruelty is great. My ex-wife did her externship there after she graduated vet school. They rock.
I don’t ask you foolios for much, but throw a few bucks their way. I’ll even sweeten the pot.
Whoever donates the most money will get to have a one-on-one, heart-to-heart video call with me via Skype. Oh yeah. Take that in. Feel the power of that. Hopefully it wasn’t just indigestion.
We’ll gab like the ladies in the steno pool. Complain about your boss, kids, or the clerk at the local liquor store who silently judges your weekly three handles of Dewar’s. Heck, it’s your call.
If you’re uncomfortable with the video thing, I’ll do the video part and you can just be on audio. That will be incredibly awkward, but that’s what I’m willing to do to save some dogs!
And if you don’t want to do a call, I’ll write you a letter. Yep, a solid six to eight sentences about how awesome you are. Tape it up in the bathroom mirror next to your Oprah gratitude list. Or burn it in a ritual sacrifice. I don’t care.
So, to recap – whoever gives the most bread will get a call or a letter from me. Plus, just donating will help you resolve some dharma and set up some solid karma for the next life.
I really appreciate anything you can give. Click below.
