| Tim develops, implements, and manages all
aspects of PETA’s planned and workplace giving programs,
helps people support PETA’s work through charitable
giving, and is the primary contact person for members of the
Augustus Club, PETA’s honorary legacy club. Dedicated
to helping animals on every level, he is a member of PETA’s
team that delivers free doghouses in North Carolina, putting
a roof over the heads of many needy “outside”
dogs.
Tim went from nursing injured animals as a youngster to practicing
civil disobedience for animal rights while in college. Before
he went on to earn a master’s degree in public affairs
and a law degree, Tim made time to serve two and a half years
in Ecuador with the Peace Corps. Inspired and motivated by
PETA publications and Peter Singer’s powerful book
Animal Liberation, he decided to devote his life to animal
rights and came to work for PETA in 2000. Tim says that what
attracted him to PETA was “the mission and a sense that
I could use my talents to help those whose cries for mercy
we as a society choose to ignore.” |
