World Animal Day offers an innovative and exciting opportunity to help develop a sponsor's business within and beyond the current borders.

The World Animal Day initiative is an ideal Corporate Social Responsibility project as it can take a sponsor's organisation into the homes of animal lovers in every corner of the world and benefit people, animals and the environment at the same time. When joined in partnership, organisations have the power to reach new audiences, expand projects and make a difference in the world around us.

That is what the organisers of World Animal Day are asking of potential sponsors today: "Please join us and help make a difference. This would be your pledge to the world that your organisation supports the improvement of animal welfare standards around the globe".

The initiative unites the animal welfare movement worldwide, embracing all animals and the unique concerns of each, in every country. www.worldanimalday.org.uk is the central portal that connects everyone who cares about animals in celebration of this special day.

Participation in World Animal Day continues to grow with the number of events in 2009 being more than 100% higher than in 2008, held in at least eighty countries around the globe. Many 2009 Event Reports have been published on the website - simply click on the links from the home page above the slide show. Events to highlight animal welfare issues and fundraise were organised by large multi-national organisations, right through to small grass root groups with very limited means.

World Animal Day is the central platform they need to connect to animal advocates throughout the world, acting as an umbrella by embracing all animals and the unique concerns of each in every country. It provides societies with the opportunity they need to raise funds and draw public attention to the valuable work they carry out, often under difficult and challenging conditions.

"World Animal Day is not linked to any one individual, organisation or campaign, but belongs to everyone! Perusing the website will provide you with a better picture of what this project is all about, and if you would like more detailed information please send me an email. Also, if possible, we would be delighted to meet with you to discuss our proposal further.

"I look forward to hearing from you via letter, email or telephone".
