13 eläinkohtaloa – Oulun Animalian kalenteri 2016

13 animal fates is a calendar in the making by Animalia Oulu. The calendar deals with the treatment of animals in our society in relation to laws, attitudes and common practices. People in the calendar put themselves into the animal’s place. Animals do not wear clothes, so neither will the models of the calendar. There will be strong images that are sure to leave no one cold!

All calendar profits will be given to charity; they will be divided equally Pelastetaan koirat association, Juliana von Wendt Foundation and Animalia of Oulu association. With the minimum goal we can print 300 copies of the calendar, but our aim is to sell 1000 calendars, so that after the expenses each of the charities receives several thousands for their important work to the benefit of the animals. Will you help?

 

The calendar is made entirely by volunteers, only costs are from the printing of the calendar. All calendar profits are used in full to charity. In the making is a big team of Oulu Animalia activists, celebrities, professional photographers, make-up and hair artist and a graphic designer. The models in the calendar include. Mr. Gay Finland 2014 Peter Linden, presenter and entertainer Sampo Marjomaa, cosmologist and professor of theoretical physics Syksy Räsänen, Mount Everest conqueror and entrepreneur Carina Räihä, writer and theatre maker Laura Gustafsson and burlesque- and pin-up artist Ginger Ale.

 

Our Facebook page presents the topics handled in the calendar, the team involved in the making and behind the scenes footage!

Animals need your help! Pre-ordered calendars through Mesenaatti-crowd funding will be mailed in the autumn well in-time for Christmas, so the calendar is the perfect gift for friends, relatives and colleagues. Help us help the animals and get yourself a copy of the most magnificent wall calendar of the year 2016 now!

 

If the project does not reach the minimum goal, the money will be returned, minus payment transfer costs (€ 1.80).

Animalia Oulu is regional subsection of Animalia. Because animals cannot speak for themselves, a strong and expert organization is needed to lead animal causes in Finland. We oppose any treatment of animals that causes pain or distress or prevents them from performing their essential species-­specific behaviors. Animalia strives to improve the current state of animal welfare and animal rights by having them more carefully considered in legislation, education and everyday dealings with animals. 13 animal fate -calendar focuses on the promotion of these issues. Animalia’s work is based on both experience and research.

Juliana von Wendt Foundation supports the scientific and medical research to develop and apply alternative non-animal testing methods, in order to contribute to the wellbeing of people and animals.

Pelastetaan koirat association works to the help the animals living in the street, at the moment concentrating in Romania’s street dog problem, which is the worst in the EU.
