Animal Rescue: Adopt a Shelter Pet

A guarantee to make you feel good about life:  Getting a card or letter in the mail with a cute stamp on the envelope, adopting a pet from a shelter, and feeding shelter animals.  Thanks to the U.S. Postal Service, Halo, and Ellen DeGeneres, you can do all three!

Purchase 20 44-cent USPS special commemorative postage stamps with 10 animal images (5 dogs and 5 cats) online  or from your local post office.  Then Halo will buy the food for 1 million shelter pets.  http://www.stampstotherescue.com/
