Please note that the web-company PetFlow is trying to help the disaster in Washington IL - - see their email and please forward. _______________________ Hello from PetFlow! [from http://blog.petflow.com/ ] On Sunday, a massive and fast-moving storm hit Washington, Illinois, a town of 15,000 people located 145 miles southwest of Chicago. Winds reached up to 200 miles per hour and many houses were reduced to piles of sticks. The storm triggered multiple tornadoes, killing at least sixteen people. The cost of the damage is estimated at $1 billion, the devastation is simply tremendous and horrifying. Aid is currently on it's way to the area, however, the last places to receive aid are usually animal shelters. We spoke today to Karly Parker from Project Hope, a No-Kill Animal Shelterwhich is just 15 miles away from the hardest hit area. They are currently caring for 200 animals, and their food stores are nearly empty as they sent much of their supplies directly to those that are in immediate need. Project Hope has 10 volunteers and is working around the clock to ensure that no animal is lost and they have agreed to act as a drop-off point for donations to be distributed to those in dire need. Karly has provided us a list of products that are in high demand, please place an order for the following products (as little or as much as you can give) and ship them to the following address. They will accept any and all donations. Use code RESCUE39 and we'll waive shipping on any $39 order and prioritize the order to the front of the queue. We will be sending our own shipment of goods as well. On behalf of all those that are affected by this tragedy, we thank you in advance for your generosity. Please forward this email to friends and or family members, so that we can send as much as possible.
