Guest guest Posted June 22, 2000 Report Share Posted June 22, 2000 Dear activists, We have a request for information on a pro-animal use group who has as a board member, the wife of Bobby Berosini, the entertainer who was involved in a nunber of court battles with peta. Recently a press release showed peta won a recent judgement and rec'd a check for over $300,000 as a result. When I contacted this NAIA group, thinking they were animal WELFARE, to inquire about why they had Joan Berosini on their board of directors, the Executive Director Patti Strand REFUSED to answer my questions. Now I have learned that Ms Strand is also on the board of the American Kennel Club, and deals with legislative matters, that tells me something there too. After the NAIA director refused to provide the information, and I requested it one more time, Ms Strand said she was sending my emails to the FBI and her " attorney " !!!! Imagine how stupid they will look to the FBI and their attorney for refusing to answer a question about their board member policy and financials, that alone should raise some eyebrows. Keep in mind I am simply requesting public information about their board member policy, yearly financial statement and policy! Makes me wonder why such an extreme reaction! I want to know more about this group, if anyone has any information, financial, tax exempt status etc please forward same to me. I decided to do some investigation. That the director is involved with the AKC board tells me a whole lot too. The NAIA have refused to provide annual financial reports or board member policy which as I recall is required from non-profit and tax exempt groups. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mike Rolland ASAIRS Administrator Help stop sexual abuse of animals: http://welcome.to/legislation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
