Rescue Support

As Grateful's founder, I have a 25+ year career in increasing membership and generating funds for non-profits via events and sponsorships through my work in managing associations and my sister company Fusion Meetings and Events. In addition to my love of healthy diets for pups and giving back, I also work to use my extensive background in increasing relationships and sponsorships to support local and national pet rescue organizations so that all can say – We are Grateful. I have developed campaigns to help promote organizations and match them with sponsors/donors, and am experienced in matching client needs to sponsor needs in establishing mutually beneficial relationships that provide monetary funds to organizations and positive publicity for both sponsors and organizations. I am now working to use these skills to work with animal rescue groups to secure participation and donations to support efforts to (a) promote the benefits of pet-adoption over pet-sales/breeders and encourage local adoptions, (b) assist in securing funds to save pets in dire need here in the US and elsewhere, and (c) work directly with shelters that euthanize to move endangered pets to shelters where they can be adopted. I encourage you to reach out to see how my efforts can ensure that there are more grateful pets and grateful pet owners. laura@gratefulpup.com 703.975.7877 MembershipsAlexandria Chamber of CommerceAmerican Society of Association ProfessionalsMeeting Professionals InternationalMonthly pet food educational webinars
