Help us Win a Million Dollar Shelter Makeover

The 30 second version

ZooToo is holding their SECOND million dollar makeover contest, which runs from now through March 13th. We have a very good chance of winning this competition with your help. If you can spare just two minutes, please follow THIS link. Signing up is simple and easy and you're helping us win anywhere from $5000 - $1,000,000 to renovate our shelter and offer more services. You won't get any junk mail and it seriously takes only two minutes. If you have more than two minutes and are internet savvy, please keep reading, otherwise, FOLLOW THAT LINK!! Pretty please?

We earn points for having people join ZooToo's website and saying that they support the Humane Society of Barron County. Then, if those people who join are active members (it's a website for pet stuff, so you can upload your pet's profiles, write reviews about your vet clinic, your favorite pet stores, and the pet products that you love and hate), every activity they do gains the shelter more points. In the middle of March, the top 20 shelters by number of points become the finalists. One of those shelters will win ONE MILLION dollars and there are a LOT of other cash prizes, ranging from $10,000-$100,000. Basically, if we could even finish in the top 20, it would make a world of difference to the animals in Barron County.

How to Help

1) Visit ZooToo through THIS link and sign up as a supporter of HSBC.

2) You will be asked to fill out some basic profile information in step one. Step two you will be asked to fill out information about your pets. This is optional. You are automatically signed up as supporting HSBC when you follow that link and if you have a breed rescue of choice to also support, you can do so in Step Three, but that is always optional. Click Submit.

3) The last step of joining is validating your account by clicking on a link that is e-mailed to you. This helps prevent people from competing unfairly and signing up hundreds of times

Once you've validated your account, THANK YOU very much, as you've just earned us 100 points and gotten us one step closer to winning a shelter makeover!!

Even if you don't have time or the internet know-how to become a regular user, please sign up as a supporter, even if you never visit the site again. As of September 27th, if we had 542 more people sign up as supporters of our shelter and participated no further than that, we'd be in first place!! 136 people would put us in the top 20! Considering we moved from 1311th place to 162nd during our first day on the site, WE CAN DO THIS!!

What More Can I Do?
Well, if you've got time on your hands, there are a LOT of ways that you can use this site and earn the shelter more points. If you have a lot of time on your hands as well as a lot of photos and videos, you can earn the shelter 274 points EVERY DAY. If you don't have quite that much time on your hands (who does?!) it's really simple to earn 30 points a day in a few minutes! Here are all the different ways you can earn HSBC additional points by using your ZooToo account.
