There is one easy way to help the animals at the Humane Society. All you have to do is go to www.fistgiving.com/bip to start raising pledges for the Walk at Bark in the Park. Making a page on www.fistgiving.com/bip only takes a minute, and can save the life of so many helpless animals.
We all (okay almost all of us) have a social media page, and with one easy click of a button, all of your friends on your facebook, twitter, google+, or any friends in your email contacts will be able to see that you are collecting pledges for Bark in the Park. They can even go to your page and make secure online donations!
For only a couple minutes of your time, you could be the reason that an animal has a chance at life......
