World by the Tail, Inc., donates a portion of our annual income to non-profit organizations. At the end of each year, staff members choose their preferred organizations and donations are made in their names by World by the Tail. Occasionally, we also donate ClayLinks® Kits and other goods and services to select fundraisers and local schools.
Here are the highlights of our philanthropy efforts in 2021:
Annual Donations
Foothills Gateway
Fort Collins, Colorado
Foothills Gateway provides jobs for workers with developmental disabilities enabling them to earn a living providing quality work for local business like World by the Tail, Inc. Workers at Foothills Gateway assemble all of our ClayPaws Kits for our sister product line. We hope to work with them to assemble ClayLinks Kits in the future as well.
3Hopeful Hearts
3Hopeful Hearts is dedicated to helping provide parents and families support after the loss of a child. In addition to support groups, they also lead several events throughout the year to help honor those lost and to help heal hearts.
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital
The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of our founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family’s ability to pay.
