This August, we salute our four-legged canine friends and Rural America as we celebrate Dog Days of Summer.
We need your help. Our goal is to raise $10,000 by Aug. 31. The funds will be distributed across the many areas of our work. Be like Tessa, click here to donate.
The money will be used for what you care about - Farm to School; microenterprises, including our Women’s Business Center and Latino Business Center; beginning, women and Latino farmers and ranchers; the work we do with gardens, farmers markets and workshops on Native American reservations; rural development work in rural communities, including work on grocery stores; environment work on clean energy, water and climate change; crop insurance reform; rural health; policy that affects rural communities, family farmers and ranchers and small businesses; and making sure your voices are heard in Washington, D.C., as well as state governments.
When you donate, send a photo of your pup to [email protected] and we will feature the picture on our website, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Let us know why you and your dog care about Rural America.
My buddy, Tessa, an English Setter, loves to go for hikes and run through fields. She chases birds and rolls in the mud with the cows and horses. She supports Rural America and you should, too.
Thank you for your support in the past. We look forward to hearing from you and checking out your cute canines during the Dog Days of Summer. You have until Aug. 31 to join in.
