What a Squirrel Wants – #Squirrels4Good

What do squirrels want? What do squirrels need? When you get right down to it, squirrels are a lot like us, just trying to survive in these urban and suburban jungles. And they do a great job. Craig Newmark of Craigslist is a big fan, and has partnered with National Wildlife Federation to support our Sciuridae friends.

#Squirrels4Good are everywhere – can you help me help @NWF reach 10K mentions & I'll give $10K? http://t.co/cVF02UD5

Craig’s Pledge:

“Here’s the deal, for each time someone uses the hashtag, #Squirrels4Good on Twitter or on my Facebook page  or NWF’s facebook page, I’ll give $1 to the National Wildlife Federation up to $5K. I will also donate $1 for each new follower I get over the next couple of weeks.”
