#3 – Rock & Rawhide (New York City)
This group, comprised of 11 board of directors and 100 volunteers (25 of which are very active), helps raise donations like toys, chew items, blankets, etc, to enrich the lives of shelter animals and lower their stress in the TRI-State area. In 2.5 years we have delivered to animal shelters and rescue groups over 120,000 items, weighing over 130,000 pounds, with a dollar value of over $830,000. TIP: Be very clear on your mission, and find a way to make your organization different from the others. www.rockandrawhide.org
