 As a Golden Paw Insider Member...

...you receive tangible benefits in three important areas:

Save Time with Our Adopter Education Materials

Never had time to write that adoption handbook? Or is the one you have sort of embarrassing? When you join the NAPRP, you get these adopter education benefits that can dramatically lower returns:

• Two printed books specifically for adopted pet owners.
• Free customization of the book cover with your logo, along with a huge discount if you'd like to use the books as a fundraising or educational tool.
• 100 pet education articles you can modify for your own use. They are word processing files, so you can easily change the text to add your own logo and include information that relates just to your breed or the behavioral techniques you have found most effective.

Raise More Money with Fundraising and Promotion Help

Imagine if you didn't have to worry about how to pay for that next bag of dog food or kitty litter? Fundraising and promotion doesn't have to be a grind. When you join the NAPRP, you receive:

• 101 Fundraising ideas specific to humane and rescue groups.
• Articles on grant writing and information on available grants for rescues and other humane groups.
• Worksheets for pledges, budgeting, contests, order forms, and raffle tickets. All of our worksheets are word processing files, so you can add your logo and customize them for your group.
• Templates for common files we all need, such as newsletters, brochures, business cards, and Web sites, which you can download instantly.
• Donation thank you cards and artwork for super easy fundraisers you can pull off with limited resources.

Keep Your Organization Running Smoothly with Administration and Management Tools

Creating all the forms and procedures you need for a successful organization can be time consuming. It's a lot faster and easier to modify existing forms than it is to create them from scratch. When you join the NAPRP, you receive:

• Breed selection worksheet and preadoption forms to help you match the right critter with the right home
• Volunteer forms and information on managing volunteers and knowing when volunteers can become a liability
• Telephone forms, so you never lose another message, no matter how many volunteers are manning the desk.
• Fax cover sheets for faxing found pet notices to local newspapers (many will list them for free).
• Lost pet signs to hand out when people lose their dog or cat.
• Incoming pet forms with questions to draw out information from reluctant humans.
• "Want forms" so you can keep track of the type of pet people want. When the animal comes in, you are just a phone call away from giving them a new home.
• ID Tag Registration form. If you use numbered ID tags, use this form to keep track of the pet that belongs to each ID.

That's not all...

With your paid Golden Paw Insider membership to the NAPRP, along with all the templates, tools, documents, and information, you also receive ongoing support. Even if you are running a tiny rescue organization in a rural area, you aren't alone. When you join the NAPRP, you receive.
