What is the PAW
Foundation? |
|
As a charitable outreach organization, our
efforts are aimed at improving the quality of life for the workers in the adult
entertainment industry - actors, actresses, dancers, directors, writers, photographers, technicians,
retail and warehouse employees - as well as improving an understanding of
our industry by the public at large.
All of our health training and awareness programs, health and life insurance,
pension program information, and peer counseling, are under the banner of
P.A.W. Available to all.
The programs have
already had significant impact on many peoples’ lives. The Peer
Counseling Program has assisted individuals, families and groups from all
walks of life, backgrounds and circumstances experiencing life-threatening psychological
crises, addiction issues (for both themselves and loved ones), relationship stress, and
workplace conflicts.
We are interested in providing speakers and seminars in any area that our
members would like information (e.g., cosmetic surgery, HIV and S.T.D.s, financial
planning, substance abuse, employer-employee relations).
Thanks for Visiting,
P.A.W. Foundation Staff and Volunteers

Our Dream |
|
THE PAW HOUSE is a dream in search
of your financial sponsorship.
Patterned after the humanitarian concept of Synanon,
THE
PAW HOUSE will be a sanctuary, a retreat, a crash pad, or perhaps even a
laughing place, a drug- and alcohol-free, communal-styled facility, wherein
all adult industry workers in need will be given a safe place, free of sexual pressure, to
stay (for as long as they want). Their only responsibility: the chores necessary
to keep the establishment clean and ready for the next person who needs help.
Operated purely on the "honor system,"
THE PAW HOUSE will
also be available (space allowing) as temporary housing for performers from out
of town who need to get their bearings while trying to find work at the
beginning of their careers.
Rooms of THE PAW HOUSE will be named after the most
generous sponsors as well as in the names of those "fallen angels" who were the
inspirations of PAW in the first place.
The motto of
THE PAW HOUSE is "Hug is a very important three letter word." |

The PAW foundation has
one main purpose: to improve the lives of members of the adult
entertainment industry. We also strive to enhance good
relations between the industry and the general public.
Everything we do--whether it is membership drives, fundraising, education, or one of our other services--works towards our goal of improving our industry and the quality of life of the very special
people who comprise the adult entertainment industry.
Please join, participate and give generously.
Thank You!
