Restaurants Making a Difference
[/FONT][/FONT] [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] Freeport, Florida -
Alaqua Animal Refuge (AAR) is proud to announce it's new program "Dine for the Dogs".
The "Dine for the Dogs" concept was created by Alaqua Animal Refuge so that local restaurants could show their support for their local no- kill animal shelter. In return for the establishments giving a percentage of their profits on the day they choose to host the event, they will receive advertising and web recognition so that Alaqua supporters can show their support by dining on the specified day.
This ongoing partnership between restaurants and Alaqua will ensure the safety of the lives of animals in our community.
"I am so excited to be a part of a program that will not only help support Alaqua, but will drive traffic to local restaurants", said April Madr, Fundraising Coordinator. "There are so many committed followers of the refuge that would love an excuse to dine out and help save animals. We hope it will be a win-win for all involved".

[/FONT] [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] Alaqua Animal Refuge, an independent, non-profit organization located on Florida's Emerald Coast, advocates the general welfare and humane treatment of animals by providing shelter, prevention of pet overpopulation and adoption services. Located down a winding gravel road on a picturesque, 10-acre farm in Freeport, Fla., once homeless, lost and abused animals run and play in sun-soaked pastures, swim in cool, clean ponds, relax on breezy screened porches and graze in lush, green fields. These animals - and many like them, usually more than 250 at any given time - have found safety and care at Alaqua Animal Refuge Inc., a unique full-service, no-kill shelter.
