PETA needs your help to convince the March of Dimes to
stop funding cruel, worthless experiments on animals. March of Dimes
experimenters have sewn shut the eyes of newborn kittens, then killed
them after they had endured a year of blindness; administered alcohol,
nicotine, and cocaine to pregnant
and newborn animals; and performed other agonizing experiments on
primates, ferrets, sheep, and other animals.
The March of Dimes relies on donations from individuals
who are unaware that their contributions are being used to torture
animals instead of helping babies. Their single largest fundraiser is
WalkAmerica, a series of walk-a-thons held in every major U.S. city
throughout April and May.
Your presence at the WalkAmerica event in your area is
vital to educating March of Dimes supporters about the charity's choices
when it comes to deciding what projects to fund. It is critical that
caring activists encourage WalkAmerica participants to designate their
contributions for non-animal projects only, like a birth-defect registry
that could save countless babies' lives.
Please contact us at 757-622-7382, or via e-mail at
JayK@PETA-online.org, as
soon as possible to arrange a peaceful, educational leafleting event at
your local WalkAmerica event, and visit
www.MarchOfCrimes.com for
more information. Thank you for all you do for animals!
