Happy Bergh-Day to You!
Stick a candle in your morning muffin, give your pet a big hug and join us in celebrating the birthday of ASPCA founder Henry Bergh. Born on August 29, 1813, Bergh founded the ASPCA in New York City in 1866, and set to work on the society's mission.
In addition to helping to pass a much more effective anti-cruelty law for New York State, Bergh inspected slaughter houses and stables, lectured in schools, spoke out against dog fighting, horse racing and circuses, and supplied daily drinking water to the horses who pulled carts and streetcars in Manhattan. By the time of his death in 1888, humane societies had sprung up throughout the nation.
Thank you, Henry, and happy birthday!

Hi Mickie,
I noticed your blog post talks about how people can help animals. My sisters and I have a band called Truth On Earth. We write, produce, and sing original songs about major problems in the world such as Factory Farming, Cyberbullying, Starvation and Child Abuse to name a few. 70% of our profits go to those who are working on real solutions so that we can get earth on track and leave a planet worth inheriting to future generations. We would appreciate any networking suggestions you might have that would help us get the word out to a wider audience. At truthonearthband.com you can hear our music and read more about our mission. We just added our first music video "Factory Farm" to our youtube page as well. You can email me at serena@truthonearthband.com
Hope to hear from you. Thanks,
Serena

Keep on rockin'
Mickie
