Thank you for blessing the bunnies and all those that get the direct gift of hugs, hope & hoppiness because of your support!!
MISSION:
Service-learning organization provides resources to mobilize comfort rabbits and their volunteer guardians to
1) PROVIDE SUPPORT during times of
tragedy, stress, loneliness and grief by sharing comfort rabbits and resources provided by Peacebunny Islands Inc.
* Families experiencing severe health challenges
* Families during times of separation including military deployment
* Senior centers and hospice
* School violence, and children’s memorials
2) SHARE RESOURCES: Social Emotional Learning and STEM-based curriculum, public health best practices
3) MODEL & NURTURE KINDNESS
During memorials with young children
we have been providing one free copy
of this book along a snuggly tie blanket
or quilt for the children in the immediate family during our comfort bunny visits.
Some ways FOUNDATION donations are spent:
* Peacebunny Unit visits
* Offsetting expenses for low income schools and communities who host STEMbunnies programs to get kids excited about learning while playing with rabbits
Since Spring 2020 outbreak of RHDV2, we have also provided support in these ways:
* Education program regarding public health, biosecurity, sanitation, mass vaccination days, preventing Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease (RHDV2)
* Providing administration support to local rabbit groups (4H, FFA, Livestock Conservancy, domestic rescues & wild rescues to host Mass Vaccination Clinics for rabbit owners in states where there is a current outbreak
Thanks for Supporting the Vision of the Peacebunny Foundation!!
The Foundation and volunteers provide the key mechanism to share our comfort rabbits owned, cared for and trained by the business side -- Peacebunny Island.
Both the Foundation and the business have specific, complementary roles and we thank you for joining us for either side of this heartfelt mission.
