Michael Arms is a pioneer in the animal welfare industry. Recognized worldwide as the creator of the International Pet Adopt-a-thon, Home 4 the Holidays adoption campaigns, and the Remember Me Thursday adoption awareness campaign.
Mike is credited in the last 40 years with saving the lives of millions of orphan animals.
Come hear Mike share about his life altering experience while at the ASPCA, which not only defined Mike as a leader, but it has continued to benefit orphan animals to this day. Mike became President of Helen Woodward Animal Center (the “Center”) in 1999. Under Mike’s guidance, the Center’s programs have grown and adoptions have reached record-breaking numbers because of Mike’s innovative ideas. The Education program has set records for the number of youngsters that are receiving humane education. "The Business of Saving Lives" workshops teaches participants more effective ways to find families for orphan pets, and it raises money to support the Center.
More than 600 organizations from over 40 states and 20 countries have been represented at these workshops since 2002. The Home 4 the Holidays campaign now includes over 4,100 organization participants in over 23 countries who have jointly adopted out over 17 million pets since 1999.
Mike will share about the extremely moving "Remember Me Thursday" Global Awareness Campaign, which encourages individuals to light a candle to help promote awareness by sharing the message in their networks which is always held on the fourth Thursday in September. This helps others to “opt to adopt,” because it reduces pets euthanization yearly. Grass roots programs and events have sprung up around the world, including, Japan, Puerto Rico, Australia, the United Kingdom and Spain
Due to Mike’s brilliant leadership, the Helen Woodward Animal Center is known around the globe as “The Animal Center of the Future!”

Your contact and business information is placed in our directory, as well as on our website in the membership section. Please remember to update your information whenever it changes, including new photos and logos. You are invited to participate in the monthly drawing for members only by bringing and talking about your donation during the drawing portion of our meeting. You can place your items for sale on 1/2 of a table located in the back of the room before and after our monthly meetings, from January through October. You should arrive around 10:30 a.m. to secure your half-table. You can share a 20 second commercial during our meetings. You can apply to speak at our member's showcase, some restrictions apply. You can post announcements for your products, services or events on our Facebook Business Page and participate in our LinkedIn Group page.
Monthly speakers are the only ones allowed to place their information on the luncheon tables during our meetings.

Be sure to post your announcement on our Facebook Business Page. Thank you.

Shout-Outs and Testimonials | |
We may run out of time at our meetings to share our testimonials for each other's services, products, and community announcements. We encourage you to write your praise and mail an email or note to the member who you want to applaud. Send your friends a special email sharing your testimonial about the member you are highlighting. Post your Shout-Out on our RSFBPW Facebook page and on your own FB page.
We offer Shout-outs and testimonial time at the end of many of our meetings, however it depends on the time left after our speaker has concluded their presentation. We do not offer testimonial time at our November and December meetings because of the length of the program. We encourage you to pass out your information, flyers, handouts and community announcements during the open networking time which is between 11:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m.
You may also want to use your 20 second commercial time during the meeting to share your business event or announcement with the group and invite interested members to pick up a flyer with more details in the back of the room. Thanks for cheerfully working with us!

A Gentle Reminder about Spamming RSFbpw Members | |
Members and visitors must individually ask each member for permission to place them on any form of mass communication-email blasts, newsletter lists, U.S. Mail lists or group texts. Without each member's individual permission, we consider this type of communication to be an act of spamming. To build long-term relationships with members please write personal notes and emails first and after developing rapport, ask these members only for permission to place them on your mailing list. Thank you for your cooperation. | |
