Updates, Updates

Since last I wrote to update the blog, much has happened.

First, I sent off my Certificate of incorporation to the state. Once I receive the receipt, I can open a bank account specifically for MMOB! I will also then be able to apply for my tax exempt ID and become a 501(c)3 through the IRS.

MMOB's Board of Directors has been created and I'd like to acknowledge the members in advance for their generous efforts towards this endeavor:

Jennifer Bell
Anand Krishnan

Jennifer O'Brien
Jessica Oldham
Michelle Waites
Sonia Zjawinski

I have been busy creating the forms for fosters and adoptions, making sure they are a thorough and effective screening tool. I have already been fielding several calls and situations which require fosters and adopters, especially in partnership with Slope Street Cats, a local TNR resource for the community. MMOB is set up on 1-800-Save-A-Pet to list our adoptable animals. In progress are my applications with the NYC Mayor's Alliance, PetFinder, the ACC's New Hope Program, 1-800-Petmeds, among other similar organizations.

Our first fundraiser has been scheduled for April 25th, 2008! Invitation to be posted soon!

Thank you to all for keeping us on your radar!!
