Crafters for Critters

I've just discovered Crafters for Critters, a Michigan-based site that sells independent crafters' work to make money for the Michigan Greyhound Connection (and other animal rescue groups). Crafters donate items to be sold and 100% of the profit goes to the greyhounds.

What's up with greyhounds? Well, greyhounds have it pretty nasty during their four-year careers. Just as bad as the greyhounds living in concentration camp situations are the almost "100,000 live rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and kittens ..... literally torn apart each year in the preferred training method using live lures."

A great idea for fund-raising! Plus, that's a damn cute hat!
