Pounds for Pugs ~

Kelly's furbabies

To all my blog friends who are animal lovers, rescue lovers, pug lovers ~ perhaps you can help.  Kelly from Cincinnati, Ohio, has come up with a unique way to help herself ~ and Ohio Pug Rescue.  Even if you just stop by and offer her a word of encouragement, I'm sure it will be greatly appreciated.

Here is what she writes:

"I wanted to let you know about a project I am working on to raise funds for OPR.  I have set up a website called www.poundsforpugs.com.

This website will serve as my personal weight loss blog. 

I have decided that the only thing that really motivates me is animals, especially those puggies!  So, as a result of this epiphany I have decided to incorporate weight loss and pugs. 

I have asked people to sponsor my weight loss with all of the proceeds going to OPR.  People might donate 50 cents per pound or what ever increment they decide on.

I have told people on my blog that I will collect the money every six months.  They will send me a check made out to OPR and I will send it to you (Terri at OPR). I also linked the OPR website to my blog. 

It's personal but if I'm going to do it I'm going to do it big! 

The more money I can raise for the pugs the more motivated I will be. 

Thanks,

Kelly"
