12 Days of Giving: Day 9 (Maui Humane Society)
Aloha, Pawtherians. We have arrived at a most excellent location in Hawaii for today’s donation.
Maui Humane Society (MHS), which unsurprisingly is located on the Hawaiian island of Maui, is the recipient of our donation today. We are proud to announce a $2,500 donation to this organization. We were joined on this donation by a project named GroovyNFT. This cool (and groovy) project added an additional $500. This NFT project launches soon and will support shelters and charities by donating a percentage of NFT sales, so feel free to check them out on Twitter.
“We were so happy to team up with Pawthereum for this donation to the Maui Humane Society. They do amazing work with homeless animals in Hawaii and Pawthereum is an innovative team we were glad to parter with. Our whole GroovyDog project is based around animal charities and shelters, and we love teaming up with likeminded teams!”
- Patrick Hagerty (GroovyNFT Co-Founder)
“We felt like GroovyNFT was a great partner for a donation to Maui Humane Society. Grooviness aside, they have a plan to donate a percentage of NFT sales after they launch, and already wanted to make a donation. They are big supporters of animal shelters and charities, and we love the idea of the good NFTs can do for charity. We have plans to implement NFTs ourselves, so making connections and learning from projects in that space is great for us. Really though, any time we can join forces with another project for the greater good we are more than happy to do so,”
- Rasmus Scheuer (Pawthereum Charity Ambassador)
MHS is one of few animal rescue organizations in the area, and the only “scheduled admission” shelter on the island of Maui. Their mission is “to protect and save the lives of Maui’s animals, accepting all in need, educating the community, and inspiring respect and compassion towards all animals.”
What’s really cool about MHS is the variety of creative and impactful programs they offer. Beach Buddies is one such program in which visitors can take shelter dogs out for a day of fun. 4EverPets is another great program. This one was started during COVID to help families and individuals experiencing financial hardship be able to keep their pets. These are just a couple of the programs MHS offers. Their website has information on all the other things they have going on, so we urge you to learn more about them there.
Housekeeping time: As with every 12 Days of Giving donation, you can get a badge by visiting My.Pawth. You can also get a 12 Days of Giving campaign badge if you visit at any time during the campaign.
Okay, now it’s time to be social which obviously means hopping on social media. And here’s a fun vid from MHS’s YouTube channel that we will end the article with, because, why not!
Aloha and Happy Pawlidays,
The Pawthereum Core Team
