Anthony for Men Helping Birds in the Gulf


Anthony Logistics has carved out a reputation as a company that gives. That giving is now extended to the embattled birds in the Gulf oil spill. It breaks my heart when I see images of these poor creatures and I am glad that rescue organizations are there doing their best. One of these is Tri State Bird Rescue. If you watch Anderson Cooper on CNN you may have seen them in action cleaning the birds.

To help the rescue Anthony is giving 50 percent of all proceeds from their Anthony Logistics For Men Body Cleansing Gels and Shampoos to Tri-State Bird Rescue and Research and Brown Pelican bird adoption program (Louisiana’s state bird) to support the wildlife rescue efforts following the Deepwater Horizon incident in the Gulf of Mexico.

" Anthony For Men chose Tri-State Bird Rescue because the organization is one of only two organizations in the country that can professionally manage a response to a major spill. Rehabilitation of oiled wildlife is a complex, crisis-oriented endeavor and Tri-State takes a teamwork approach to oil spill training and response, stressing the need for regulatory agencies, responsible parties, state and federal wildlife professionals, colleagues in wildlife care and concerned citizens to work together both in preparations for and response to oil spills. "
