Help the Homeless Animals Found Animals Foundation, Inc. (www. FoundAnimals.org), a leading animal welfare organization that works to end pet homelessness, announced its annual Michelson Found Animals Saving Pets Challenge. The third CrowdRise Challenge for pets is a fundraising competition, benefiting animal welfare organizations dedicated to decreasing shelter pet euthanasia. Found Animals will grant more than $150,000 to the top fundraising organizations dedicated to this cause. Animal shelters, rescue groups and spay/ neuter clinics from around the country will compete for more than $150,000 in grants toward innovative programs that expand lifesaving capacity in their communities. Whether the focus is cats or dogs, trap-neuterreturn, spay/neuter, adoptions, or surrender prevention, Found Animals is committed to delivering practical solutions that ensure the health and safety of dogs and cats everywhere. In addition to the prize money for the top-five organizations that raise the most money, $35,000 is set-aside for weekly Bonus Challenges. If an organization does not win any of the $150,000 in grant prizes, it will still keep the money it raised during the campaign. The Saving Pets Challenge will begin receiving applications from animal welfare organizations across the country on March 1, 2016. There are no restrictions on the type of projects participants can raise money for, provided they are a US-based 501(c)(3) organization and address the common goal of saving pets from euthanasia in shelters. Teams can raise money for projects that prevent shelter intake or accelerate live releases. • Burkley & Brandlin LLP A T T O R N E Y S A T L A W Living Trusts/Wills, Probate, Employment Law, Personal Injury Trust and Estates Litigation, Business Litigation, Civil Litiga tion 310-540-6000 Lifetime El Segundo Residents *AV Rated (Highest) Martindale - Hubbell / **Certified Specialist Estate Planning, Trust & Probate Law, State Bar of California, Board of Legal Specialization Brian R.
