Gale Pacific USA Inc launches appeal for animal victims of Australian bushfires.
(Altamonte Springs, Florida). Gale Pacific USA Inc, a leading marketer of pet and shade products, announced today the launch of Aussie Pet Aid to assist with animal recovery efforts following the devastating bushfires in Victoria, Australia.
The bushfires represent the worst natural disaster in Australia’s history. While the tragedy is still unfolding, it is clear that hundreds of people have perished or are seriously injured. Over 700 homes have been destroyed.
Less visible but equally affected, are the untold number of animals that have been affected by the bushfires, including household pets that have been hurt and are homeless or in shelters.
Already, relief efforts are underway to support families directly affected by the bushfires and to assist with recovery efforts. President Obama has pledged US aid as well as offered condolences to the bushfire victims.
Drawing attention to the large number of animals that will also require assistance, Gale Pacific is appealing for donations to assist with animal recovery efforts. 100% of the funds raised from the appeal will be used to get much needed supplies to animal rescue centers, including bedding and shading.
Donations can be made via the website www.aussiepetaid.com or directly at 1 800 560 4667.
A subsidiary of an Australian company, Gale Pacific USA Inc, has been involved with animal recovery efforts in the past, most recently providing assistance to the LA ASPCA following the devastation caused by Hurricane Ike in 2008.
