Pet Haven is an all volunteer foster-based animal rescue organization. We help homeless cats, kittens, dogs and puppies. Pet Haven was founded in 1952 and is a charitable 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We rescue and re-home cats and dogs, spay and neuter to reduce overpopulation, educate the public about responsible care of companion animals, and advocate on behalf of companion animals.

Minnesota Children's Hospital                                  www.childrensmn.org

Everything that represents a child's life inspires us. Serving as Minnesota's Children’s Hospital since 1924, we are the seventh-largest children’s health care organization in the U.S.. An independent, not-for-profit health care system, Children’s provides care through over 14,000 inpatient visits and more than 200,000 emergency room and other outpatient visits each year.

The spring time brings new life and joy to all. The Photographer's Guild like to celebrate by bringing baby bunnies into our studio for childrens portraits sessions. The giggles and laughs from the children are priceless. We offer a FREE bunny session (reg. $29.95) with a new toy donation to the Minnesota Children's Hospital. This promotion offers us the oppertunity to bring a little joy to those children that are not able to make it in to see the bunnies.

In the spring of 2008 we have raised over $1000 in toys for the Minnesota Children's Hospital. We would like to thank all the families that helped us spread spring joy to those who needed it.
