Who Are We?
Why Are We Qualified?
We are “Paws on Purpose”, spearheaded by Orazie Cook, a passionate advocate for animals and the proud owner of Praline’s Backyard Dog Services. Our journey began when we recognized the power of turning charitable work into an impactful mission. With Praline’s Backyard Foundation, we took a stand, housing pets of domestic violence survivors and giving them a chance at a better life.
Navigating the intricacies of the non-profit application process, Orazie transformed challenges into expertise. Through firsthand experience and relentless determination, Orazie successfully secured a 501c-3 status for Praline’s Backyard Foundation. Our expertise doesn’t just lie in our personal journey but is further solidified by the countless pet businesses we’ve mentored, guiding them to also achieve their 501c-3 status efficiently. With our systematic approach, extensive knowledge, and genuine passion for pets, we are more than qualified; we are committed to seeing your charitable become amplified.
