Description: |
First Annual Karuna For Animals Art Show and Auction at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Huntington.
Join us to celebrate our efforts to expand the circle of compassion to include animals of all species.
Spend the day enjoying live music, a silent art auction, delicious vegan finger food, a fantastic raffle giveaway, face painting (be sure to bring the kids!), and lots of good conversation and good company.
Admission to the event is free and all proceeds earned from your generous donations will benefit our education and advocacy efforts, as well as help us to reach our goal of opening a local rescue and rehabilitation center for any and all animals in need.
Additionally, a portion of the proceeds earned will be donated to the San Francisco based pit bull rescue and advocacy organization, BADRAP, whose mission is: Securing the future of the American Pit Bull Terrier as a cherished family companion.
BADRAP was formed in 1999 to tackle the difficult issues that had been bringing early death and suffering to San Francisco bay area pit bull type dogs. They soon developed into a nationally recognized resource for both dog guardians and shelters, offering desirable companions for adopters, training classes for guardians and presentations and professional consultations to animal welfare leaders around the country.
Karuna For Animals: Compassion In Action, Inc. is an all volunteer, yoga-based, 501(c)3 non-profit organization, whose members seek to promote compassion (karuna), peace (shanti) and loving-kindness (metta) for animals of all species. It is our mission to raise awareness and funds for the rights of all animals. Through a dedicated practice of the science of yoga, community outreach, humane education, vegan cooking and nutrition education, and monthly fundraisers, we aim to cultivate the change we hope to see in the world.
All funds raised are used to support our outreach and education programs, as well as to reach our goal of establishing an Animal Sharanam (sanctuary) on Long Island, which will provide rescue, rehabilitation and lifelong care for animals of all species. |
