Here's another way you can support the Tripawds Community, and it costs nothing but your time.
Are you good at researching? Tripawds Foundation needs a volunteer research assistant.
As we previously mentioned, Tripawds Foundation has an exhibit at the American Animal Hospital Association conference in Austin Texas, 3/30 - 4/3. While we're there, we would like to make contact with other exhibitors whose companies have corporate giving programs.
For example, if fellow exhibitor Pet's Best Insurance has a corporate giving program, we want to know more about it ahead of time. That way when we're at the conference we could pinpoint the most appropriate and promising prospects.
We need a research savvy individual who can volunteer a few hours by 3/15 to:
- Pinpoint AAHA conference exhibitors with charitable giving programs.
- Enter the URL and other details iinto an existing Google Doc that has all conference vendors listed.
That's it! Ideally this research would be completed no later than 3/15. Any takers?
Please respond no later than Wednesday 3/9. Thanks for considering it!

Sally .... you're too funny!!! In all honesty, I am swamped at work or of course I would help. But by the time I get home, I can't bear staring at the computer screen for any longer .... I am confident that the Tripawds nation will fine great volunteers!!!!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Oh man, I wish I could help but I've been having issues with my work PC now for about 3 months. IT has been working on it and today is the first day I've been able to efficiently work without it crashing. I don't know if this is temporary or if it is truly fixed.
My home office isn't setup yet as we're still not unpacked from moving in October. We're still in the middle of renovations. Here's my home office at the moment:
Harmony became a Tripawd on 10/21/14 (MCT). She left us way too soon on 11/1/14.

Now that's a comfy home office!!

Nice!
No worries Pam, I can see you're in the middle of a huge project!

It truly has been a challenge. Every time I want to sit on the bean bag, Meesha beats me to it.
Just sharing, you'll notice the roller with paint on it sitting over the bucket? Let's just say, Meesha's got a little extra white on the side of her neck.

Hey folks, we have a NEW need for someone to help with an ongoing database building project.
We'd like to get all 800 VCA clinics into an existing Google Docs spreadsheet, so that we can send our Tripawds Outreach brochures to every one. Yes, that's a lot of clinics, we don't expect it to happen overnight, or even in a month.
But if someone can commit to adding a few names a week, that would be so great!
It's easy, and if you've never used Google Docs we can show you. It's just like Excel.
Now don't all jump up at once 😉
Thanks for thinking about it.
