After months of brainstorming, learning, and hard work we have received the results of the individual challenges that awarded non-profits with additional grant money during the Giving Challenge. We were awarded grants in the following categories:<br /><strong>- Best Use of Social Media<br />- Best Overall Campaign<br />- Best Giving Challenge Video<br />- Best Business Partnership<br />- Manatee Millennial Challenge</strong><br /><br />We're so proud of our team of volunteers and we are so grateful to the community for all of the support we received during the Giving Challenge and to the sponsors who provided matching opportunities for our donors and supported additional grant opportunities. We can't wait for next year!<br /><br />For our business partnership, we were proud to join Sarah Brown and all of the staff at Manatee County Animal Services in the effort to find our county shelter animals homes and free up some precious kennel space. We're excited to extend this partnership beyond the Giving Challenge by continuing to do events together and promote our <strong>#UnforgettaBULL</strong> campaign that brings awareness to bully breeds and other shelter dogs that often slip through the cracks in a shelter system.<br /><br />Our award-winning Giving Challenge video can be viewed here:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI95Ij3JLxU" style="color: #859436; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI95Ij3JLxU</a></td></tr>

Thanks to the generosity of sponsors, donations made between noon today (Tuesday, Sep. 20) and noon tomorrow will be matched. If you donated to our rescue last year through the Giving Challenge, your donation of $25-$100 will be doubled. If this is your first time, your donation will be tripled. This is an amazing opportunity for our dogs! <a href="http://fmnrescue.blogspot.com/2016/08/giving-challenge-2016-reflecting-on-2015.html" style="color: #2baadf; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">Last year</a>, we were able to use the Giving Challenge funds to move our dogs to a new location, build all new kennels, and double the kennel space for some of our larger dogs. This is a pretty huge deal for us. $25 goes a long way out here at the kennels, but<img align="right" height="300" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/559c529a-c3de-43ab-b3ae-80163240f39a.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 300px; margin: 0px; outline: none; width: 300px;" width="300" /> it goes quickly. The fact that our donors are able to triple their generous donations is almost unbelievable to us, and we hope you're just as excited about it as we are.<br />

We were thrilled when MCAS director Sarah Brown agreed to partner with us for the Best Business Partner challenge this year. Immediately, we began to plan an adoption event for the dogs at the county shelter. We decided to call it "Clear the Shelter" because that was the ultimate dream. Sarah Brown believes being a No-Kill county shelter is achievable, and of course we will do whatever we can to help her in that mission. The kennels were overflowing with dogs, and still are, but by working together with Animal Services to promote this event and bring our event to life, we were able to help the county shelter adopt out 25 cats and 27 dogs in two days.<br />

That is the whole idea behind our UnforgettaBULL campaign. So many people were astonished by the number of pit bull-type dogs filling up the kennels, and some of those people ended up going home with one of those blocky-headed friends. We couldn't have asked for a better outcome. <a href="http://www.instagram.com/fmnrescue" style="color: #2baadf; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank"><img align="left" alt="Volunteer t-shirt model shows off our Unforgettabull merch" height="301" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/2730b245-8734-4969-9bd8-ce8c8b0c4d41.png" style="border: 0px; height: 301px; margin: 0px 15px 0px 0px; outline: none; text-decoration: none; width: 300px;" width="300" /></a><br />

Honestly, we all fell in love with him. I'm pretty sure it's not humanly possible to meet this dog and not love him.<a href="https://www.facebook.com/forgetmenotpet/photos/a.593339214030738.1073741826.591310187566974/1229772130387440/?type=3" style="color: #2baadf; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank"> Twenty-seven dogs</a> were adopted that weekend, but people just kept passing by Thumper's kennel. It could be that he was saving all of his charm for us Forget-Me-Not volunteers, but it was probably the <strong>deformity of his front left paw</strong> that was turning people away. His deformity might be a little hard to look past for some... But he's just our type! According to his vet records from Dr. Ashley Kanzler of<a href="http://desotoanimalclinic.com/" style="color: #2baadf; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank"> Desoto Animal Clinic</a>, the deformity is likely from an old fracture that never healed properly. <img align="right" height="276" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/73509d4a-b64b-47eb-be8b-a8f375b3887e.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 276px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 15px; outline: none; width: 293px;" width="293" />This gives us hope that we'll be able to get Thumper corrective surgery for his leg and he'll soon be in ship shape! We scooped the little guy up at the end of the Clear the Shelter event on Saturday and we all giggled as we gave him kisses and loaded him into the van. Thumper is less than a year old, and soon enough we'll find him a new home to enjoy the rest of his long, healthy life in. The freedom ride was glorious, and it was a beautiful end to a beautiful day.<br />
<br />
<strong>Be the One</strong> to help us help dogs like Thumper! It's thanks to our community that we're able to do this at all. This is truly an amazing 'village'. He still needs a lot of veterinary care, so we sure will appreciate any donations sent our way in Thumper's name! <strong>Donate here during the Giving Challenge:</strong> <a href="https://givingpartnerchallenge.org/npo/forget-me-not-inc" rel="nofollow" style="color: #2baadf; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">https://givingpartnerchallenge.org/npo/forget-me-not-inc</a><br />

Some of our dogs are still overcoming traumas that keep them at a sanctuary status, and some will never recover, but they're safe here. We love these dogs. They're our family. We knew what we were getting ourselves into by becoming a No-Kill rescue and housing sanctuary dogs, and part of that responsibility is affording lifelong care for dogs that will never be adopted. An example of this is Hero, our resident "Dangerous Dog" designee (AKA victim of a weird and outdated law that was recently turned upside down by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FREEPADI/?fref=ts" style="color: #2baadf; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">Padi's case</a>). We agreed to give him sanctuary to save his life. We strive to give these sanctuary dogs as comfortable an enclosure as we can, and provide them with walks, socialization, and toys to play with every day. We want it to feel like a home for them.

Here's a list of places you might find us partying with pups throughout the day and night:<br />
- Downtown<br />
- Riverwalk<br />
- Kelsey's<br />
- Baddabing<br />
- O'Leary's<br />
- St. Armand's<br />
- Main Street in Sarasota<img align="right" height="253" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/cae14de3-61c4-417b-8366-f40c86ac1564.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 253px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 15px; outline: none; width: 300px;" width="300" /><br />

We save local dogs from death row.</h1>

We work with what we have but of course we're limited by space, able bodies, and by funding. But honestly, our community does a pretty great job of keeping us running smoothly, and for that we can't thank you enough! We are based in the Manatee-Sarasota area. Most of our dogs come straight from<strong>Manatee County Animal Services</strong> and the farthest out we go to rescue dogs is an occasional trip to Highlands County, also known as Sebring. That means your donation and your hard work stays in this community. We believe euthanasia is meant only for the terminally ill dogs that have no comfort left in life, and<strong> we are proud to be a No-Kill rescue.</strong> We love these dogs. They're our dogs until they're adopted, and we treat each one of them as loved family pets -- <em>because that's what they are.</em><br />

So here's the news</h1>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">
Online, on September 20th & 21st our incredible supporters have the opportunity to have their donations matched (doubled if you donated through the Giving Challenge last year, tripled if this is your first time participating with us in the Giving Challenge.) This is thanks to the generous sponsors of the Giving Challenge listed below, and the whole event is hosted by the Sarasota Community Foundation. We will receive a donation link that lasts only 24 hours from noon to noon through which eligible donations can be made. We will be sharing that link like crazy on our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/forgetmenotpet/" style="color: #2baadf;" target="_blank">facebook page</a>.<img align="right" height="300" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/3f623e02-b43d-4266-af50-b93fb335335e.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 300px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 15px; outline: none; width: 300px;" width="300" /><br />
<br />
<strong>Early pledges</strong> may also be made by phone at any time before the challenge. Simply call our trusted board member Stephanie at (941) 962-4090 to make your pledge.<br />
<br />
The theme this year is 'Be The One', which we totally love. The whole point is that anyone can be the one to make a difference. It doesn't matter if you're dropping a $100 donation or a $25 donation this year, whether you can bring a foster dog into your home or just hold a leash for 5 minutes, <strong>you are making a difference.</strong> We're not a big organization,<em> we just have big hearts.</em> We know the names of everyone who comments on our Facebook posts and supports us through PayPal and our YouCaring fundraisers. You mean so much to us and we love that you believe in what we're doing here.</div>

Our Next Event</h1>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">
<img align="center" alt="Clear the Shelter flyer" height="356" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/977f804c-336f-4371-a7ee-6a50e5f9abdc.png" style="border: 0px; height: 356px; margin: 0px; outline: none; width: 550px;" width="550" /><br />
<br />
We are thrilled that Manatee County Animal Services agreed to partner with us for the "Best Business Partnership Challenge" this year, and we expect great adoption success for the animals in our county shetler from our joint Clear the Shelter 2-day Event this Friday and Saturday. We sure hope you'll come out and see us!</div>
<h1 class="null" style="color: #86ad53; font-size: 26px; line-height: 32.5px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#UnforgettaBULL</h1>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">
We are also promoting our UnforgettaBULL campaign, through which we hope to bring light to the dogs who are overlooked at the shelter and are in danger of being forgotten or falling through the cracks. This often means seniors, pit bulls, dogs in need of medical care or behavioral rehab, or simply unlucky pups who run out of time.<br />
<br />
<img align="center" alt="UnforgettaBULL t-shirt design" height="476" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/ef81fdcf-8cbc-4d73-b382-0a3059053c87.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 476px; margin: 0px; outline: none; width: 550px;" width="550" /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><em>Our millennial design team also came up with some new t-shirts.<br />
Grab yours at the event this weekend Sep. 16th & 17th</em></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">
<br />
So, we hope we've earned your support this year. If we didn't, we can promise you we are constantly learning how to better our organization and grow larger and stronger as a team. Last year, the results from the Giving Challenge were astounding and your support allowed us to build new kennels for every dog in our rescue during our move to the new location. We were also able to double the kennel space for some of our larger dogs and build raised beds for every kennel. We're so proud of how far we've come, and we hope you will stick around to see our progress for next year!</div>

How To Donate</h1>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">
If you'd like to make a donation to Forget-Me-Not for the Giving Challenge but you're so excited that <em>you just can't wait</em>, give us a call at<strong> (941) 962-4090</strong> to make your pledge now. Donations between $25 and $100 are eligible for the matching opportunities.<br />
<br />
Otherwise, we will be sent a donation link on September 20th that will last for just 24 hours. Through this link, our supporters will be able to make donations eligible for double & triple matching. We'll be sending out an email with that link and also sharing it on our Facebook page during the challenge on September 20th and 21st.<br />

<b>I’m Hero!</b> People who know me say I’m a big mushy faced love bug who is just as sweet as can be! People who don’t know me decided to call me a ‘dangerous dog’ because of a big misunderstanding. You see, I was in a home once after being rescued from a life of neglect and abuse.Somehow I got out of the gate one day and decided to go on an adventure. Looking back, that wasn’t one of my best decisions but I can’t change the past! Anyways, while I was enjoying all the smells the world has to offer, I wandered into someones private yard. Turns out those people didn’t like my kind, so the lady started chasing me with a broom! How was I supposed to know I wasn’t allowed to smell the things in her yard? Long story short, she was chasing me with her big scary broom, so I ran for the first safe looking place I could find because it was terrifying! That safe place happened to be her house, and somehow amidst the chaos her daughter was scratched on her chest. I didn’t mean to hurt her, I was just trying to say hello while running from the scary lady with the broom. </div>

<a name='more'></a>Fast forward, I ended up in doggie jail awaiting sentencing. I was scared, lonely and very confused! I tried to tell them I’m a good boy, that I was very sorry and didn’t mean to hurt anyone but they didn’t seem to understand. They wanted to kill me for one little scratch, it didn't even require stitches, just a bandaid! Thankfully, the angels at Forget-Me-Not came to my rescue! In exchange for my life, I was sentenced to being called a ‘dangerous dog’ and abiding by all the rules that come with such a bad title.<br />

The law that punished me has now been declared unconstitutional thanks to a dog named Padi, however, every year FMN still has to pay my hefty registration costs ($500!), and my home has to adhere to certain requirements and restrictions. With all those fees and rules the chances of a dog like me ever finding a home of my own aren’t great, but thankfully my angels at FMN will care for me and love me forever! Saving dogs like me, that’s what they do, but they can’t do it alone! Please consider supporting my friends at Forget-Me-Not Inc. during the <b style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit;">2016 Giving Challenge September 20-21</b><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit;"> </span><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit;">so that they can continue to help deserving dogs like me!</span><br />

Betty (affectionately known around here as Betty Boop) was pulled back in 2013 from our local <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ManateeCountyAnimalServices/" target="_blank">Manatee County Animal Services</a> when the dog overpopulation called for more kennel space. She arrived at Animal Services after being confiscated by police when her owner was evicted from his home. She found herself middle-aged and homeless, and it wasn't her fault. She came to us 5 years old, thin as a rail, heartworm positive and <i>sassy as all get out.</i><br />
<br />
Two days after being sprung from the crowded shelter, Betty surprised us all by giving birth. Only one of her two puppies survived, but she was a determined little rascal. She was a spitting image of Betty -- a little mini-me. Betty's pup quickly found a great home and Betty continued her medical care so she could be placed for adoption and find a family of her own.<br />

</tbody></table>
Eventually, Betty put on a healthy amount of weight (although if you ask some of us, she could stand to lose a few pounds) and began to look like the normal, happy dog she is. She was spayed so there would be no more surprise puppies in her future (something we do for every dog who walks through our doors) and we made sure she had all the medications she needed to fully recover from her heartworms.<br />
<br />
A year passed and Betty spent her days walking and lounging with kennel staff and volunteers when they were around, chewing on her favorite toy (a rubber chicken), and using her big doe eyes to convince us all to give her treats whenever we had them. Her photos were on all of the adoption sites, and she often made an appearance on facebook looking for suiters, but she didn't score any dates. <i>(If only we could photograph inner beauty, online-dating and dog rescue would be a whole different ball game.)</i> Another year passed, and still Betty's only family remained the volunteers, kennel staff, and barking neighbor-friends that surrounded her.<br />

Somehow time has flown, and Betty's third anniversary with our rescue is quickly approaching. Nothing in this sweet dog's life has ever been fair, but each day when we are greeted by her exuberant wiggles we're reminded to keep our heads up and persevere, because she's not going to let anything ruin even one single day for her, and we know her forever home is out there. Betty ended up homeless due to no fault of her own, and the only reason she hasn't found love is because she's overlooked due to the grey around her muzzle. She's an amazing dog, and she will be someone's very best friend some day. #BeTheOne to see past the grey. <br />
<br />
Betty is a huge inspiration for our new campaign, #UnforgettaBULL, in which we hope to educate the community on the plight of pit bull-type dogs and other dogs that are overlooked based on health, age, or appearance. These dogs often end up falling through the cracks, and no dog deserves to be forgotten. Our goal is to remind you that all they need is a second chance and a little extra time, and to think of dogs as individuals, not statistics.<br />

All of the Forget-Me-Not family appreciates your donations. We strive to maximize their impact on the lives and welfare of the dogs in our no kill rescue.</span></span><br />

The experience of working together was invaluable. The Giving Challenge 2015 afforded us the opportunity to increase our knowledge and the community’s awareness of our rescue. We added a small army of committed volunteers, which includes our millennial multimedia crew. The millennials revamped our graphics to appeal to a wider demographic. As a result, we gained fosters, donors, volunteers, and followers on social media. </span></span><br />

<strong>SUMMER PUPS</strong></h1>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">
As many of you in rescue know, Summertime is <strong>puppy and kitten season</strong>. To most people that sounds exciting, but if you're anything like us it makes you groan. We love puppies! Who doesn't? But we <strong>don't</strong> love seeing puppies in high-kill facilities already slated for euthanasia at 7 weeks old. That's why we're now on our second batch of Summer pups! We rescued these six Catahoula/Cur mix pups along with their Mom, MJ, from <strong>Highlands County Animal Control.</strong> They are old enough to be away from Mom now and they are looking for forever homes! Without further adieu, here's your puppy fix:<br /><img align="left" height="333" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/1c6fd02a-d7bc-4ce8-9aeb-a8a81e1e63bb.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 333px; margin: 0px; outline: none; width: 250px;" width="250" /><img align="left" height="333" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/3cc4aaa2-4c48-46ef-a348-788f683c06f7.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 333px; margin: 0px; outline: none; width: 250px;" width="250" /><img align="left" height="333" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/fc825f43-76fc-4463-a957-8426a524be3f.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 333px; margin: 0px; outline: none; width: 250px;" width="250" /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/forgetmenotpet/photos/a.615417481822911.1073741834.591310187566974/1182821205082533/?type=3&theater" style="color: #2baadf;" target="_blank"><img align="left" height="333" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/1247b537-92d8-4a59-916b-930a8bb5f6a5.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 333px; margin: 0px; outline: none; text-decoration: none; width: 250px;" width="250" /></a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/forgetmenotpet/photos/a.615417481822911.1073741834.591310187566974/1182821218415865/?type=3&theater" style="color: #2baadf;" target="_blank"><img align="left" height="333" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/b5cd313c-55da-48c9-bc53-ab4919e95772.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 333px; margin: 0px; outline: none; text-decoration: none; width: 250px;" width="250" /></a><span style="font-size: 26px; line-height: 41.6px;"><strong><a href="https://www.facebook.com/forgetmenotpet/photos/a.615417481822911.1073741834.591310187566974/1182821258415861/?type=3&theater" style="color: #2baadf; font-weight: normal;" target="_blank"><img align="left" height="333" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/524a9d159a5dae5d7ac242708/images/2724ee95-29cd-415b-b14d-16e0eee44d5f.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 333px; margin: 0px; outline: none; text-decoration: none; width: 250px;" width="250" /></a></strong></span></div>
