2025 LOVE OUR DOGS Charity Calendar

 


It is with great delight to inform the fans and supporters of LOVE OUR DOGS Charity Calendar that the 2025 calendar (the 16th anniversary project!) will be ready for your purchase in late September @ loveourdogscalendar !!💝

Similar to previous year, due to workload on hand, I have been struggling whether to continue this project or not. But perhaps due to some kind of "mission" idea in my mind, I tried to see how I can carve out some work to another person and still be able to do the rest and continue with this charity project. Then I DM a pet photographer I followed for a while and see if he's willing to help out on photography part and we clicked in an instance! @ obesephotography - HOWARD, a big thank you! Without you, I may not be able to continue with this project.🙏

Howard completed the photography sessions with all 12 monthly sponsors in lightning speed and in a superior quality! With his photos, I found time to complete the editing and worked out the design and printing details with @idolprinting. Thanks to Pam and Stephanie @idolprinting, the details of the printing job also completed as per schedule.😊

Needless to say, THANK YOU to all the 12 months sponsors for your kind-heartedness and  sponsorship and making time to take your furry family members to photoshoot. All of your doggies are just adorable and cuteness overload. A few of them are newly featured doggies, if you can map them out and welcome to be stars of LOVE OUR DOGS calendar! :)

THANK YOU also to my commercial sponsors - @megapets, @whiskasnpaws, @brownstailor, @moguu, @rocktone @valleyvet, @meganskitchen, @luckyoffices.🙏

Please support by Follow, Like and Share the calendar's IG page @loveourdogscalendar and FB page loveourdogscalendar

Thank you all who purchase a calendar or make a donation! 🙏

As Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, wishing you all and your paw-paw family members all the best in this festive season.🥮🌝

2024 Calendar Report

 


Dear supporters of LOVE OUR DOGS Charity Calendar,

It's been a long while and apologies for not updating promptly as life has been a turmoil since late last year, overlapping to first quarter of this year. Bits and pieces picking up here and there, everything getting better day by day. Keeping positive spirits and energies.

Delay no more and it's time for me to give you all a summary of the results of the 2024 calendar as follows, all self-explanatory. A total of HK$410,00 net funds were raised and donated to the beneficiaries specified below. From 2009 to 2023, a total of HK$2,755,342 were raised to help the doggies-in-need via these NGO beneficiaries.

Without the support of the 12 months sponsors and their amazingly charming doggies, @annchoi for assisting in photoshoot, @Paullung for making the almost real-life illustrations in the big calendar pages, my kind hearted retail sponsors @wnp @megapet @mogu @VSH @valleyvetcentre @brownstailor @rocktonemusic @meganskitcken @clubstriing,  @Idolprinting for assisting me with the printing job, and most important each of you who support this charity project by buying a copy or making a donation, THANK YOU every much, on behalf of beneficiaries @HKDR @SAA @LAP @SPCA @hongkonghomelessdogshelter, who have received all your donations and making good use of it to help the doggies in need. Their acknowledgement letters as shown below.

                                                 



Have been thinking many times if I so should continue with this project with the 2025 calendar considering the many challenges in life .... decided to give it one more try. So, please stay tuned for the 2025 LOVE OUR DOGS Charity Calendar. It's all W.I.P now and printed calendars should be ready in late September 2024. Please continue to support this little charity project.

Best wishes to you all,
M
