EatSmart fans will continue to select each Charity of the Month in 2013. Fans will submit short stories about the charity’s mission and why it’s meaningful to them. We began our Charity of the Month donations in 2011. August’s Charity of the Month has been chosen by Joseph from EatSmart Products. He selected Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc.

Read why Joseph chose Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc.

As an animal lover, I wanted to give back to my furry friends and help a local animal shelter that is dedicated to finding every animal a nurturing home. Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. not only takes care of dogs and cats but also farm animals and reptiles, which attracts more adopters to their shelter. I really like the fact that the Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. is a no kill shelter and they give every animal a chance at a new beginning.

Another great thing about the Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc, is that they provide an abundance of services after you adopt the newest member to your family like low cost care and dog or cat care tips. Having a featured dog and cat on their website ensures them a forever loving home. Every animal needs their time to shine. I'm truly impressed with their mission to protect, shelter, and locate suitable families. All of these animals and the shelter deserve a generous donation from EatSmart for everything they provide.

Also, this is for our special EatSmart employees, Dominick and Emma. They work really hard at what they do!
