Updates from Petey's Promise » store http://peteyspromise.org/blog Stay in the loop with Petey's Promise Thu, 01 Dec 2011 18:28:26 +0000 en hourly 1 It’s Official! http://peteyspromise.org/blog/2009/03/its-official/ http://peteyspromise.org/blog/2009/03/its-official/#comments Thu, 12 Mar 2009 04:17:08 +0000 swedishbee http://peteyspromise.org/blog/?p=416 It is OFFICIAL! Petey’s Promise has been granted our 501 (c) (3) by the IRS! Many of you may think, “What is all the excitement about?” Well, let me tell you, receiving your non-profit status from the government is no easy task. There are all sorts of hoops you have to jump through (some of which they light on fire), which is good, of course, because that keeps everyone honest. However, even though it was a paperwork nightmare, the pride we feel today at this accomplishment makes it all worthwhile.

As you know, in February we ran our Share the Love with your Four Legged Friends contest, and we received hundreds of photos through our Web site and Facebook page. I can’t believe how many people took time to upload pictures of their adorable animals. We enjoyed looking at each and every one. Congratulations to Anna M. from Charlotte, NC, for winning our grand prize, and Jimmy A. of Norfolk, VA, for being our first prize winner.

The month concluded with a great article on how Petey’s Promise is helping the community in the March 1st, Charlotte (NC) Observer. Of course, Petey posed for the photographer like a pro and did a spectacular job promoting his favorite charity!

Also, if you haven’t yet, please check out our new Petey’s Promise online store www.shop.peteyspromise.org. The site was created by our own Sara B. and she did a fantastic job as always. We have everything from ACC accessories to designer flip flops. All proceeds go to directly to our foundation.

With all of the excitement from the past month, we just can’t wait to see where we go from here!
