Three California Cities to Host National Animal Welfare Workshop

SURPRISE, Ariz., Dec. 15, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- The Smart Dog School of Fundraising (www.schooloffundraising.com), an Arizona based school that offers certified training to animal welfare staff, today announced that it will bring its highly rated one day animal welfare fundraising workshop to three California cities in 2011: Los Angeles, Fresno and San Francisco.  All four workshops offered in California cities in 2010 sold out.

"The demand is very high from animal welfare organizations and professionals for us to bring our workshop to their specific city.  We were impressed with the turn-out from Californians the last four times we offered this workshop in their state.  When it came time to select the 18 markets we'd visit in 2011, it was obvious that California would receive several selections to host our workshop again," remarks Tim Crum the president and founder of the Smart Dog School of Fundraising.  

The one day workshop will be offered the following dates and locations:

• January 24, 2011: Holiday Inn Express Van Nuys on Orion Avenue
• January 26, 2011: Holiday Inn Express Fresno on S. 2nd Street
• January 27, 2011: Holiday Inn Express San Francisco on S. Airport Blvd

The workshop registration fee of $99, including a workbook and CD-ROM with fundraising forms and templates, is being offered for only $25 per person if registration occurs before December 25 thanks to sponsorships from Tru Catch Traps (www.trucatchtraps.com) and Mason Company (www.masonco.com).  For more information or to register for the workshop visit www.schooloffundraising.com and click on "Workshop" tab or call 623.975.1234.  Space is limited.
