Glitter, stickers, and paper - Oh my!

Adele has a passion for the arts. She loves creating wonderful works of art with paper, glitter, glue, stickers, etc.

We are creating Valentines for dogs deserve better which sends valentines to anonymously submitted addresses to let dog owners know that leaving their pets leashed up outside is not humane. Here is their website to learn more. http://www.dogsdeservebetter.com/home.html

We volunteer for Raccoon Valley Animal Sanctuary and Rescue. Adele is making valentines that we will "sell" for $1. The proceeds go to Molly's fund which is used in the local area for rescuing abused animals. Here is a link to her story. http://www.raccoonvalley.com/Donate/Mollyfund.html

The valentines will in turn be donated to Dogs Deserve Better to send to leashed dog owners to bring awareness to the inhumane treatment.

Adele started on this project for a couple of hours today and our home is an artist's messy sanctuary right now donating time to create these. She has already made 32 Valentines. The goal for Dogs Deserve Better is over 12,000 Valentines this year so we hope we can help meet their goal! I am telling you there is a ton of love and creative outpouring going into this project.

Thank You Adele for making the world a better place and doing a wonderful, impactful,volunteer project!
