The ultimate goal of HWCC is to release the treated animals back into the wild. Trained volunteers, with access to veterinary help, treat a wide range of injuries incurred mostly from human contact (i.e. gunshot wounds, vehicular impacts, etc.) ... HWCC treats over 800 mammals and birds every year. Why we love them: We have a special love for the forest, it's wildlife and especially raptors (Ruby, the proprietress' daughter, is a Bird-child if ever there was one). The Blessed Thistle believes in supporting your local community as much as you can, and this is a great local organization. We encourage you to seek out organizations in your own backyard, and do what you are inspired to do. ∞♥
From their website: "In response to the public health crisis of breast cancer, the Breast Cancer Fund identifies – and advocates for elimination of – the environmental and other preventable causes of the disease. Founded in 1992, the Breast Cancer Fund works from the knowledge that breast cancer is not simply a personal tragedy, but a public health priority that demands action from all." Why we love them: In our recent past, the proprietress worked for a wonderful Berkeley, CA based company that helped nonprofits raise money, www.malwarwick.com. It was at this time that we encountered The Breast Cancer Fund. We participated in one of their fundraising events, an annual hike in the San Francisco Bay Area. Great people, working for a very important cause. A very informative and transformative site; check out their link to 'Skin Deep,' an amazing resource to see how your body care regime rates in terms of dangerous ingredients for your body (or go here: www.safecosmetics.org). ∞♥

From their website:
"Cari's music
inspires us to live the vision of a new dream: the dream of heaven on
earth." Why we love her: This songbird has an amazing ability to capture spirit surfacing and temper it through her voice, gifting the world with songs that uplift and behold the best in us all. Her album _Circle of Fire_ is an homage to the Four Agreements, the teachings of Don Miguel Ruiz. But even if you don't know or care what that is, you will find this album to be a dose of positivity in an often negative world. 'Fessin Up: Okay, we are a bit biased ~ Cari Cole is indeed the proprietress' sister. But don't let that stop you, find out for yourself how talented this woman is. Check it out. ∞♥
