Charitable Monthly Spotlight - HAG

This month I'm showing my support for HAG, an organization that helps people with Sugar Gliders who are having a tough time caring for them. It's not a hand-out but a hand-up.... more like Goodwill for Gliders than anything else. To learn more about this awesome organization, click here.

What is a sugar-glider?


“Sugar Gliders” are small marsupials in the same general family as a Kangaroo or Koala Bear. They are originally from the rainforests of Australia and Indonesia , and have been domestically bred as household pets in the United States for the last 12-15 years.

Often called 'pocket-pets', they are super soft and adorable. However, they also need a ton of care and upkeep. Since they're so dang adorable, many people will get one as a 'cool' pet not knowing exactly what it takes to raise them.

I've learned a ton about these cute critters as I've been a proud Sugar Glider Mama for the past 4 years. We're huge animal lovers in my house... along with our glider we also have a dog, a cat, and a bird. Just a bit of a zoo going on over here!

I discovered HAG last year while researching on my glider - I like to keep up-to-date on the latest news and techniques in raising these exotic animals. I was so impressed with both the mission of HAG as well as the knowledge and passion shown by founder Amanda Nojoe, that I knew I wanted to show my support. Which brought me to the question...

How can I help?!


Simple. I've decided to donate 10% of my total January sales from my website, BlueCopperJewelry.com, to HAG!! With each purchase you make from Blue Copper Jewelry you'll be getting beautiful jewelry and helping a great cause, all at the same time! It doesn't get much easier than that does it?!
