CELEBRATE ADAM'S BIRTHDAY!!
Adam's Birthday is coming up. In fact, it is just a little more than a week away. We are also celebrating the one year anniversary of Pharaoh joining Adam and becoming a celebrity.
California has recently experienced both wildfires and mudslides and many animals, both wild and domestic, are in need of rescue, and so we have decided that we will concentrate our efforts on animal rescue in general, and a few California organizations in particular for our group efforts.
If you would like to rather choose a local animal rescue group closer to you as your cause, feel free to do so.
But if you'd rather join our group effort, here are the two organizations we have picked, their website, and then all further information below:
A) The direct link to their donation page is: www.marinhumane.org/get-involved/ways-to-give/
Just press the donate button, and you are ready to go. Please enter #HappyBirthdayAdamLambert into the 'Special Notes (255 char) field. This way we will get a grand tally at the end of the month.
Also, for international donors outside of US/CA: On the local billing page of this organization, I suggest you list both city and country in the city field (i.e. Vienna - Austria), and you will be able to select 'none' in the state/province field. That should work fine. Once you click on the regular paypal or credit card button below, you will find the usual international selection fields, and that is where you need to be and can be more accurate. That billing information is just for Marinhumane's own records, and entering city - country is fine for them.
They are prepped and looking forward to seeing what we can do. Please send out a tweet or use other social media to spread the news.
Here are some news talking about recent rescues of animals from wildfires, including one batch of rescues from Ventura county, which MarinHumane.org has recently accepted. Thought you might be interested in some of these articles:

===================================
B) www.walkmehomerescue.org/
This organization is familiar to many of us, due to Pharaoh, and they are looking forward to this Birthday fundraiser, and are happy to be included. Again, we will use #HappyBirthdayAdamLambert to mark our group efforts. The owner will get us a grand total based on that key word. If you pay with credit card, you will see an 'Write a note' (optional) - field at the top. Use this to enter the key word. If you pay with paypal, you will have to use the paypal note field for that purpose. Also, marking it a 'friends' payment, results in a waiver of the paypal service fees, which allows the donation to be fully applied to the cause.
=======================================
I hope we can support both organizations, spread the news to other fan sites, if we have access, and tweet about them, i.e:
Please supporte Marinehumane.org to celebrate Adam Lambert's 36th birthday and Pharaoh's first anniversary. Will you join me? www.marinhumane.org/get-involved/ways-to-give/ Happy Birthday, Adam!
or

Please join me and support Walkmehomerescue.org to celebrate Adam Lambert's 36th birthday and Pharaoh's first anniversary. Visit www.walkmehomerescue.org, and press yellow 'donate' button.
