Happy Fantastic Designs will be representing the non-profit charity "Basenji Rescue and Transport (BRAT). BRAT is an all volunteer group that rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes dogs of the basenji breed. In 2008 they were hit HARD by financially supporting a large number of dogs from puppy mills -- as many of the dogs were malnourished and sick which led to expensive vet bills.

Happy Fantastic On-line Fundraiser for BRAT


My On-line fundraiser for Basenji Rescue and Transport (BRAT) is doing well. BRAT is a nation wide organization that rehabilitates and re-homes basenjis that were given up and/or abandoned by their previous owners as well as a number of dogs from Puppy Mill busts. This year celebrates BRAT's 10 year anniversary. BRAT is a non-profit organization made up of approximately 1300 volunteers in the US and Canada. BRAT re-homes about 300 dogs a year and has found new loving homes for THOUSANDS of dogs over the past 10 years.

To date, I have raised almost 50 dollars for BRAT from my on-line fundraiser. That may not seem like a lot in the grand scheme of things, but it could pay for much needed meds for a dog or 1 months food for 4 dogs. To check out the items part of my fundraiser please go to www.happyfantastic.etsy.com or e-mail me to place a special order to benefit BRAT.
