How to submit information for appropriate events (educational opportunities, fundraisers, and events -- mostly):
The easiest thing for you to do is to follow this format:
Date:
Name of event of very short title/summary:
Location and hours:
Description of event (please no more than a sentence or two)
Contact info: can include email, website, phone, etc.
Send this info to info@massanimalcoalition.org. While we love to look at pretty .pdfs, it does take longer to tease out the relevant info and make and event entry. So, for everyone's benefit, following this format is most productive. The email and website is volunteer staffed, so please allow several days before your listing makes it up on the site. We do get a lot of emails, so if you don't see your submission, please follow-up to make sure it wasn't accidentally overlooked or deemed spam by the email server. Thank you.
Please note that MAC does not endorse events unrelated to MAC and posts entries as a service to the animal sheltering/protection community.
