Hi animal people,
I wanted to let people know that we will be webcasting live from our pre-Oscar "The Cove" party this afternoon, Saturday, March 6, "Sunset Sangria to Save Japan Dolphins." The party is 4-6:30pm Los Angeles time. We will be on line by 5pm (8pm ET) when our program is due to start. James Cromwell (Babe) will introduce Ric O'Barry who will talk about his work behind The Cove and his efforts to shut down "dolphin abusement parks" such as SeaWorld.
You can join us live on line at http://tinyurl.com/yaegmp5 to watch and to participate via the comment screen.
We are trying to raise $100,000 today to send Ric and his whole team back to the Taiji cove in September to stop the slaughter!
Please go to www.SaveJapanDolphins.org
and click on the "Donate Now" button, either right now, or after Ric's speech has inspired you. Ray Abruzzo, who you might know as "Little Carmine" of The Sopranos, will also be "gently persuading" folks, after Ric's speech, to help support Ric's efforts. Ray is a delight, so stay tuned for that.
Facebook folks can donate through the Causes application on Facebook at http://tinyurl.com/ydtx8zo
Please send Ric and Louie, the filmmaker, lots of good vibes for Sunday's Oscars!
Yours and the animals',
Karen Dawn
