Pet Philanthropy Circle

From Bob Morris the husband of the late Jewel Morris. To family, friends and Pet Philanthropy Circle supporters, My wife, Jewel Morris passed away on March 18th, 2020. It was sudden and unexpected one minute she was alive and apparently healthy and the next minute she was gone. Jewel died from an embolism in the lungs. Fortunately she did not suffer. ... Because of the Covid -19 virus, only the immediate family will be in attendance. Jewel will be laid to rest in her family burial plot in Sweetwater, Tennessee on May 17th, 2020. However we will have a memorial service via Zoom some time in the near future. Friends, family and all the people who knew and loved her will be notified by Facebook and / or email of the date and time sometime in advance. May my lovely Jewel have eternal peace.

What a wonderful night at the #PetHeroAwards in Manhattan! Such an honor meeting animal activists who make this world a better place for animals. Verizon FiOS1 - New Jersey Pet Philanthropy Circle Soi Dog Foundation No Dog Left Behind

Pet Hero Awards Honor the Champions of Animal Welfare An Alliance of Associations, Corporations, Veterinarians, Philanthropists and Volunteers Saving Animals Ar...ound the Globe Water Mill, NY, October 20, 2018 - Naomi Judd, Tinsley Mortimer of the New York Housewives, and Co-Hosts, David Frei, Westminster Co-Host for 27 years and currently the Co-Host of the National Dog Show seen annually by 30 million viewers, and Jewel Morris, CEO and Founder of the Pet Philanthropy Circle greeted an audience and honorees who traveled from around the world to celebrate the dedication and commitment of this year’s Pet Hero Award winners. The focus of this year’s gala was preventing the 2.7 million pets that are killed each year in kill shelters, the 20 million killed in China, and how Soi Dog Foundation, this year’s People’s Choice Animal Welfare Organization of the Year has virtually eliminated the meat market trade in Thailand. Jeffrey Beri, CO-Founder of No Dogs Left Behind, the International Rescue Organization of the Year, described a few of the life-threatening experiences of preventing the 20 million pets killed in China each year. Morris, also Founder of the Pet Hero Awards, shared the challenges local rescues and no-kill shelters face in pulling animals out of kill-shelters here in America. Morris and Dr. John De Young, President of the American Veterinary Medical Association (91,000 members strong) the winner of the Animal Health Organization, are partnering to encourage veterinarians to provide at least three free spay and neuter operations to local rescues each year. Pet overpopulation is the main reason so many healthy, adoptable pets are killed each year. The Zoetis Corporation accepted the Corporation of the Year Award for their unprecedented generosity in providing free vaccines to vetted rescue groups involved in transporting animals out of Texas, Louisiana and Puerto Rico. By providing free vaccines, they prevented diseases from spreading throughout the United States during the hurricane relief evacuation programs. Bravo Zoetis! The Irwin Family; Terri, Bindi and Robert Irwin, Inaugural Humanitarian Family of the Year, championed the cause of protecting wildlife in their acceptance speech. Fido Fixers, the South Fork Natural History Museum and Nature Center, and Storm, the Golden Retriever that rescued a drowning fawn from Long Island Sound whose inspiring video reached over 19 million people were present to accept their awards. A special thanks to Alex Donner Orchestra, London Jewelers, SiriusXM, the Park Lane Hotel, Designs by Mark Masone, and FiOS 1 News. The EVENT WILL BE BROADCAST ON FiOS1 NEWS, CHANNEL 501, ON NOVEMBER 8TH AT 9:00 PM. #PetHeroAwards PetCircle.org
