Anvil Media Cash Donation To Pixie Project Helps Animals In Need
PORTLAND, Ore. (December 13, 2011) – Anvil Media, Inc., a search engine marketing (SEM) and social media marketing (SMM) services agency, recently announced a cash donation of $2,500 to The Pixie Project, a Portland-based animal rescue organization.
“I believe our community helps make us what we are, so we owe it to our community to give back,” stated Kent Lewis, Anvil Media President. “We especially value helping organizations in our own backyard.”
The founders of The Pixie Project are committed to changing the image of a “rescue” or shelter animal. While some animals come to The Pixie Project seeking medical or behavioral attention not accessible in a typical shelter, many Pixie Project “kids” are professionally trained, family friendly pets whose circumstances have left them in need of a new home.
“As a relatively new non-profit, donations of this size can be hard to come by. Anvil’s donation went directly to our free and low cost spay and neuter fund which allowed for 51 dogs to be altered thereby preventing the birth of literally thousands of homeless puppies. Anvil’s generosity had a huge impact on our ability to help our community during a very difficult economic time where often the care of the animal becomes a last priority. We are grateful beyond words for the kindness and generosity of this exceptional business,” stated Amy Sacks, co-founder of The Pixie Project.
Anvil is dedicated to continuing its commitment to organizations looking out for others by offering pro bono services, volunteering time outside of work and making charitable donations to those in need. Anvil added a cash contribution element to their annual Charity of Choice at the beginning of 2011 as a way to do more for the community.
