In the hope to further the fight against animal cruelty and increase awareness around the welfare of the same, Pawse for a Cause is making a comeback, and will grace our shores with a second annual charity carnival this year. Set for 29 July 2017 at Desa ParkCity, the effort seeks to spotlight the plight of strays nationwide, raise funds for pet non-profits, and educate the public on the Animal Welfare Act soon taking effect.
The pillars of said partnership is reflective of what Pawse for a Cause represents as a movement in that it is first a grassroots educational platform; second a conduit for social and legislative reform; third a sustainable support system for ongoing financial aid and emergency response services; and fourth an engine driving the zero stray population charge. In essence, the prevalence of crimes against animals in our country underscores our relevance and need to exist.
Meanwhile, the programme in July endeavours to provoke the appropriate call to action whereby a wider audience comprised of public and corporate donors are led to participate in cash and kind, and lend to the cause without ceasing. The 2017 fundraiser target has been set at RM100,000—the sum total of the proceeds will be evenly distributed amongst deserving pet welfare beneficiaries nationwide. Pawse for a Cause serves as guardian of the initiatives outlined above.
