<div>Hi everyone,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Mike James, and I am a student at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As part of my Business Growth and Development class (BUS 477), I have been challenged with a final project: to identify a local organization and help them grow, gain exposure, and improve their operations.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>While this is a class assignment, the mission I’ve chosen is deeply personal. I have chosen to partner with the Fox Valley Humane Association.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why This Matters As a lifelong animal lover, my heart has always been with our furry friends who don't have a place to call home yet. As a pet owner, this organization holds a special place in my heart. With the holidays approaching, the need to support these animals feels even more urgent. I wanted to do something that goes beyond just writing a paper—I wanted to take real action to help animals find comfort and care while they wait for their forever families.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My Commitment To complete this project by December 9th, I am taking a two-pronged approach:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Time: I am dedicating at least 16 hours of my personal time to volunteering on-site at the shelter, assisting with whatever tasks they need to keep operations running smoothly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Treasure: I have set a modest fundraising goal of $250. Every single penny raised will go directly to the Fox Valley Humane Association to support their mission of caring for homeless animals.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m All In I believe in leading by example. To show how much this means to me, I am kicking off this campaign by donating the first $50 from my own pocket.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How You Can Help If you are able, please consider donating to help me reach my $250 goal. Whether it is $5 or $20, it all adds up to food, warmth, and medical care for an animal in need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you cannot donate right now, please consider sharing this link! Helping me spread the word is just as valuable in gaining exposure for this wonderful organization.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation helps the Fox Valley Humane Association continue its vital mission. Here are just a couple of ways your contributions will support their work:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Providing food, shelter, and medical care for rescued animals.
</div>
<div>Offering educational programs to promote responsible pet ownership and animal welfare.
</div>
<div>Join me in making a positive impact—together, we can help these animals find the love and care they deserve.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping me support a great cause and complete my degree at UW-Oshkosh!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sincerely,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mike James
