SOCIAL: Fire Benefit

[Manish Champsee]

Hi all,

Over the last 2 months, I was fostering a dog with a group called
Rocket Dog Rescue.  If you are unfamiliar with the concept..basically
this group gets dogs from shelters who are about to be put down, finds
temporary homes for them (like me) and then tries to place the dog in
their forever home (i.e. an adoption).  I'm proud to say that last
week the dog that I was fostering found her forever home.

The founder of this organization, Pali Boucher, recently had her home
burn down.  You can read about it here:

She is truly one of the most selfless people that I have ever met and
the last person who deserves something like this to happen to her.
They are having a benefit for her at El Rio on Friday from 5pm-9pm.  I
would strongly urge everyone to try and make it out there if you can.
Also, if you can foster a dog, please contact Kay Hoskins at
415-756-4749 or kay at rocketdogrescue.org

I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year.

Thanks,

Manish
