Pet-Friendly Hotel Directory Implements Fundraising Program for Non-Profit Animal Shelters and Humane Societies for Half of Proceeds

Corvallis, OR, June 08, 2009 --(PR.com)-- In order to better serve their customers and to assist non-profit animal organizations at the same time, HotelsAllowingPets.com (HAP) has designed a fundraising program. In order to carry out the program, coordinators seek the help of non-profit animal shelters and humane societies. Half of the proceeds will be donated to their organization when they successfully solicit new hotels in their region to add to HAP’s directory.

HAP is an Internet directory for those who travel or are displaced with their pet. With the help of charitable organizations HAP will be able to add more of the 44,000 estimated pet-friendly hotels throughout the United States to their directory. HAP’s ultimate goal is to be a comprehensive and up-to-date resource.

Those who are accepted into the program will contact hotels in their region and appeal to Hoteliers to help raise money for their cause in exchange for a quality product at a low price. There is no cost required to perform a membership drive and no materials needed. The organization doesn’t have to spend time or money on order taking, product handling, or delivery.

The recognition that many people cannot donate as they would like in a recessed economy leads to the fact that these hotel contributions remedy some of the increased need for support and establishes donor relationships.

The owner of HAP and coordinator of this program stated: “We hope to be able to benefit all parties involved by allowing non-profit agencies to perform membership drives; Hoteliers are receiving affordable Internet advertising and the chance to give to their local humane society or animal shelter; our website visitors gain access to an increasing number of hotels across the US; and charitable organizations get the opportunity to raise funds for equipment, supplies, and animal care without having to invest money or deliver products.”
