Teddy


Share This:

Hi, my name is Teddy. I’m a 10 month old, 10lb, Shih Tzu puppy.  Up until now, I’ve lived a sheltered life with little socialization. I love running free in the fenced yard or playing quietly with toys in the house. Riding in a car and walking on a leash are both still new for me. I’m doing well with housetraining when taken out regularly. New situations, sounds, people, and especially children make me nervous. My New England foster home […]

Together For Children Rights


Share This:

Depending on the country in which they reside, a child will not enjoy the same rights or conditions of life as their Western counterparts.  Many regions and countries in the Third World face great disparities, and the factors in question, whether political, economic, social, cultural, ethnic or religious, can have a different impact on each child. Despite the progress that has been made in recent years, the situation faced by the children of our world is still desperate.  The most […]

Share This:

You must start with a good understanding of how much it will cost to operate your non-profit so you know how much money you need to raise. You will need to have a good sense not only of the fixed costs to start your non-profit, including state and federal fees and the time it will take to complete that paperwork, but also any necessary costs for infrastructure and development.  For example, you may need to rent office space for your non-profit, […]
