We are fundraising on behalf of the Pygmy Rabbit, although the Pygmy is physically small her need for a livable habitat is great. Last year nearly $1,500 was raised on behalf of the Amur Tiger. This year, 100% of the proceeds will go directly to ONDA with whom I negotiated that all the funds raised will be exclusively used to fortify their habitat.

About Joss Paper
Joss Paper rituals provide a means of bringing in new energy. These ornate papers are typically burned for specific problems such as for health issues, financial problems, or to clear out ghosts or malevolent spirits.
They may be burned when moving into a new home or business. To clear away old energies and invoke a new beginning. They can also be burned before traveling to send out prayers of peace and safety.
Joss papers may be burned by an individual or in a group setting.
