Social Media For Social Good, Twitter

December 18, 2011 By Jodi

Today is the second part of the Social Media Blitz, hosted by Pamper Yourself In Pink and Two Little Cavaliers.  While WordPress won’t allow me to put the rafflecopter on my page, I am providing the link to a blog that can,  Two Little Cavaliers.

To enter the drawing to win $112  for yourself AND $213 for the charity of your choice, all you have to do is scroll down and click the links to follow people on Twitter.  It’s that simple and takes a couple of minutes of your time.

What’s that you say, you don’t have a favorite charity?  Well let me introduce you to one of MY favorite charities, Labs 4 Rescue. 

While Delilah did not come to us through this particular rescue, I’ve recently gotten to know Ann who does all of the placements for this wonderful rescue.   When one of my readers got in touch with me about a beautiful lab that was being neglected, I didn’t know what to do.   The guy was going to put his dog on Craig’s List for $100.

I was in a panic.  I got on the horn with Ann, who told me some not so nice things that can happen to some dogs that are sold this way, she agreed to give the guy a call and see if she could convince him to surrender the dog.   

She did.

Ann and our friend Dave went out and picked up Ranger, brought him to foster care, gave him some training and I am happy to report that Ranger has found his forever home.  He is now living on ten acres somewhere in Massachusetts. 🙂 

Ranger was lucky, his story had a happy ending but not everyone’s does.  Some dogs will be spending the holidays in shelters, or worse will be spending their last days in shelters.  Please help me make a difference this year, go to this link and follow me (and other bloggers if you’d like) on Twitter.

It is THAT easy.

Maybe together you and I can make a difference.
