If you click to read the story, there is a link at the bottom to view a video presentation (2 minutes long) and see the contest entries. There is some nice background music as well, provided by Heather Reazin.

Thanks Sheila and Sally. Heather's voice is awesome. Her singing adds a lot to it. She is also just brought a brand new baby boy into the world. :)

She is an admin at WCN and a good friend of mine. I am very supportive of her music.

Thanks also, to those who view the vid at YouTube, and rate or comment. It moves NWHS up the ranks and makes it more visible. If your comment doesn't show right away, it's because they are set to be approved.

Add NWHS as a friend and subscribe, if you like :) Then comments on vids and the NWHS profile page will show without approval.

Thank you everyone for reading the article and viewing the YouTube presentations. Those who have joined NWHS, saw the news as the lead article in the NWHS Members newsletter last Saturday. Although the contests at WCN (the NWHS sponsored intent community) are fun and entertaining, they have a deeper purpose. We endeavor to bring a conservation awareness to people.

In reading the most recent IUCN release, there are well over 17,000 species on the brink of extinction. Now more than ever, wildlife conservation efforts needs assist. National Wildlife Humane Society may be small, but we are working very hard. We invite anyone interested in helping, to join us in our grassroots organization. We are far more than an internet community, FaceBook and contests. That is just internet presence to create outreach and education. We are deeply involved in the real world, from our wildlife sanctuary to our efforts in rainforest preservation in Ecuador.

We can only do what we can do with what we have. It is people who can extend our reach and enable us to do more. We are not "the panda" and do not attempt that direction. We are on a trail we are creating on our own, and creating positive results on minimalistic funding. We have no one currently on a payroll, and in the near 20 years of the wildlife sanctuary, have never had anyone on a payroll.

So please, if you can do nothing else, please at least pass us on to others.
