I want to start off by saying, if this thread violates the rules in any way I apologize in advance and please feel free to remove it. I thought maybe because it wasn't straight up donating money this would be okay, they are selling these cool paintings and the proceeds just happen to go toward a bird in need. :)
This is Bob, I was informed of him through a group I belong to on fb. This lovely woman named Stephani works with him at Almost Home Parrot Foster Program in Mesa, AZ. Bob's neck is fused this way and has been since he was a baby. He is arthritic and mobility challenged. His vet bills are going to run around $400 at the Avian and Exotic Animal Clinic of Arizona, in Gilber AZ. She is an artist and can paint any parrot on just about anything! She is making ornaments, wine glasses, coffee mugs, plates, canvas, vases etc and can add names, all for a donation to his vet care. It can be made directly to the vets office or to the rescue's paypal. She really is an amazing artist, I just love her work. :)

One of the boxes she painted, she said that she has been trying to get $20 per box but is able to work with people depending on what they can afford.

Don't forget, christmas is right around the corner, these would make fantastic gifts for the parronts on your list :)
Once again, I hope this was okay to post, I know we can post bird related things that are for sale but I also know fundraisers can be a no no on forums so I wasn't sure, I am very sorry if this is against the rules in any way. I also want to say that I have spoken directly with Stephani and she is aware that I am posting this here and using her photos but I am in no way affiliated with this rescue, just trying to get the word out since I thought it was a really awesome thing she is doing :)
