Spanky Project: September 2014
http://spankyproject.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 2, 2014. Hoofing It To Cuba! Back in early January I received an email from Dr.Hester Massop. She is a Dutch Veterinarian presently living and working in England. Here is an excerpt. 8220;I have been on holiday in Cuba and seen with my own eyes (which I knew I would) what struggles and battles there are to be fought and that they will be hard and often leave you feeling helpless (but in need to keep going). I think my plans would be to go to Cuba around Sept/ Oct time.”. She's not a gi...

Spanky Project: November 2014
http://spankyproject.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 25, 2014. SO WHAT'S GOING ON? Inquiring minds want to know. When the Spanky Project was born in 2003 we were aiding a small group of Cubans and a Dutch woman, that were helping animals. On weekends they would provide free sterilizations for, on average, sixty dogs. These were done on kitchen tables in homes. As their work wound up, for a number of reasons, the Spanky Project sought to help fill the void. Our goal was to take the surgeries from the kitchen table back to the clinic table.

Spanky Project: May 2014
http://spankyproject.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 4, 2014. It is with sadness that we learned about the passing of Alejandro Noa. Alejandro was a Havana artist that created hand painted greeting cards. This is the first example of his work I ever saw. It was a card that Justo, a Spanky Project supporter in Havana had given me. Through Justo we commissioned Alejandro to create Thank You cards and other material for the Spanky Project. Here is one of my favourite pieces. Justo has sent some detail about Alejandro. You will be missed.

Spanky Project: January 2014
http://spankyproject.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 1, 2014. Thank goodness that is over . Thank goodness that is over! 2013 was not a stellar year for our efforts in Cuba. All this and more resulted in lost opportunities to help Cubans help their animals. It's a shame when governments get in the way of efforts to do good. Forever the optimist I say to myself. Let's kick 2013 to the curb and push on. From the Spanky Project we send our deepest thanks to those that support the work in Cuba. Or anywhere animals are in need.
