Press Release: ASPCA Announces Launch of “ASPCA® Mission: Orange™”
Focused Campaign in Target Cities Aimed at Creating a Country of Humane Communities, One Community at a Time
NEW YORK, January 10, 2007—The ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) today launched, in partnership with target animal welfare and community organizations from across the country, “ASPCA® Mission: Orange™”—a focused effort to create a country of humane communities, one community at a time. In order to achieve this goal, the ASPCA and its partners will identify the unique needs of each target community and implement programs that will result in immediate, measurable and sustainable change for the animals in these communities, especially those most at risk—the shelter population. These programs may include, but are not limited to, financial assistance and grants, strategic planning, community grass roots activities, humane education and a variety of training opportunities. For more information, please visit www.aspca.org/missionorange.

It may sound picky....but, at least Ed could have worn something in Orange in the photo used.
Ed and the ASPCA - I applaud your efforts. I feel you need a middle American - Heartland relationship. I'd love to see changes in the breadbasket/midwest/heartland. Animals are so often considered utilitarian that getting the humane, no euthanasia for overpopulation, message across is tough.
Please consider partnering with Lincoln, NE as well!

Mission Orange sounds like a wonderful and ambitious project! Does Mission Orange also include establishing TNR (trap-neuter-return) programs in these communities for feral cats that can't be adopted?
