WHAT THE FLUFF IS SHIBA PROM, NFP?
Shiba Prom NFP (Shiba Prom for short) was founded in 2012 & is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit fundraising & grants organization. Our mission is to help Shiba Inu dogs (& Shiba Inu mixes) that have been rescued from unfavorable situations such as abandonment & neglect.
How do we help these Shibas if we are not a Shiba rescue? By raising money that can be distributed in the form of need-based grants to eligible Shiba Inu rescues in the USA. The money we raise comes from our volunteers, donors & our very generous supporters. Since our inception, we have raised over $100,000!
While we do not assist with the rescuing, rehabilitating or rehoming of Shibas, our grants help improve the quality of life of Shibas in rescue so that they can find their furever home. The Shibas we help need medical attention & supplies & are at risk of being denied adequate care due to lack of funding.
INSPIRATION & MOTTO
Our founders created Shiba Prom in the spirit of Shibas working together to raise money for their fellow Shibas in rescue who need care before they can be adopted. Shiba Prom is metaphorically "operated" by the Shibas of our volunteers. This concept created our motto that we still use to this day, "Shibas Helping Shibas: Having Fun Raising Funds!"
SHIBA PROM MAIN EVENT
The Shibas of Shiba Prom decided their fundraising main event would also be called Shiba Prom, which was based on the concept of having an actual "prom for Shibas." Prom goers (Shibas) would attend the event stag or with dates, sometimes in costumes, but always ready to shake that Shiba booty to music (& chaperoned by their hoomans of course) while having fun raising funds for Shibas in rescue.
