Dear Friend of United Poultry Concerns, Thank you for your invaluable support during the past year. I am writing to you now because United Poultry Concerns urgently needs your financial help at this time. Would you please make a significant contribution to help us?
To help you understand our situation a little more, United Poultry Concerns has a monthly mortgage in the amount of $347.13, along with other expenditures, including the government demands that UPC be consistent with our nonprofit status. We have had to hire an accountant to do the extremely complicated paperwork required to maintain our charity status under the IRS. Our sanctuary and relocation expenses have been, and continue to be, substantial. Our educational outreach, including the detailed investigations upon which all of our campaigns and Action Alerts are based, require significant outlays of money every day of the year. If United Poultry Concerns is going to continue to be a key player in the animal advocacy movement, we must have the funds necessary to do our vital work. Whether it be conferences or computer searches--every project expense comes from our donations. Dear friends, if you value the programs, accomplishments, and goals of United Poultry Concerns, and if you agree that we fill a much needed place in the animal advocacy movement, please pledge your support by sending us the most generous donation you can possibly give. Your money will be well spent.
United Poultry Concerns is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit
organization which addresses the treatment of domestic fowl in
food production, science, education, entertainment, and human
companionship situations. We promote the compassionate and
respectful treatment of domestic fowl. All donations are fully
tax-deductible Federal I.D. 52-1705678.
