Cause We Love – Keiffer & Friends Pit Bull Rescue

Share the goods.

Sometimes a cause is so compelling, so basic, that we are forced to share it with the community.  Here is your monthly nonprofit discovery post in the series Cause We Love.

You don’t have to know us personally to figure out that us gals at 834 Design & Marketing have a soft spot for animals. You know those people who post tons of pictures of their pets on Facebook and share compelling animal stories that tug on your heart strings? That’s us, except we call our pets our “fur kids”.

Out of our love for animals and hard core activism towards adoption and preventing pet homelessness, this month we’d like to introduce you to Keiffer & Friends Pit Bull Rescue, a non- profit 501(c)(3) organization.

The name says it all. Keiffer & Friends Pit Bull Rescue’s mission is to find responsible owners for homeless pit bulls by providing care, treatment, protection, and education to the community. Not only does Keiffer & Friends work to save and protect pit bulls from abuse, neglect, and illness, part of their mission is to curb the false reputation built on the breed. If you’ve ever met a pit bull, you’d know these energetic fur friends are full of love and crave human attention. Sadly, this wonderful breed faces discrimination every day as they have been falsely given an aggressive and violent reputation, but that doesn’t stop Keiffer & Friends from the shining a much deserved positive light on pit bulls by spreading  truth to the community.

Are you interested in helping Keiffer & Friends achieve their mission to find forever homes for the pit bulls in west Michigan and show the community their true colors? Volunteer your time, funds, or items based off the Keiffer wish list to help a pit bull in need.

Visit Keiffer & Friends Facebook or website to see how you can get involved and be a voice for the amazing pit bull breed.

Something on Your Mind?

We love Dr. Karen May’s mission.

What if we taught our daughters AND our sons about women’s health, hormones, and pregnancy? Not as a whispered “talk” or a one-time awkward conversation. Just normal dinner-table stuff.

The girls deserve to know what’s coming (perimenopause shouldn’t be a surprise party nobody wanted). And the boys? They’ll be partners, dads, coworkers, and bosses to women going through all of it.

Thank you, Dr. May, for sharing your best practices to keep the women’s health conversation going at our Uncomfortable Conversations | The Pause event.
Showing up to an interview with an iced coffee? Not the move… unless it’s for @bodespeaks

… and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Meet Joey, one of @bodespeaks’ nine rescues and 8THIRTYFOUR’s self-appointed office manager. She’ll happily accept head pats and belly rubs, but make no mistake: she’s always watching.
The Women’s Owners Network (WON) is built for smaller businesses that are ready for the next level and need the right support to get there, whatever that looks like.

The six-month program combines the practical side of business with the emotional side. Participants work on leadership, finance, operations, and access to capital. They also get structured support for isolation, emotional volatility, and decision fatigue that come with owning a business.

WON is designed by entrepreneurs who have been there. They know that lasting business growth depends on personal growth and the resilience it takes to keep going.

This program gives women business owners thoughtful, well-rounded support to reach their next chapter, however they define it.

Who is WON built for?
Women founders who are in the thick of it and are:

- Past the idea stage: actively generating revenue and serving customers
- Committed to growth: ready to invest six months in the work, starting in November

Apply for the upcoming cohort at the link in bio. Applications close Oct 1.
