Scottsdale, Arizona - (Cheap web Hosting Directory) - August 13, 2007 - Domain registrar and web hosting firm, GoDaddy, is once again, donating its time and money to help Arizona’s Humane Society, by matching online donations made during a recent annual telethon, in the amount of $50,000.

GoDaddy.com also helped keep the technical side of the television charity event running smoothly as well. Thousands of sick, injured and homeless animals across the state will benefit with improvements through the money raised through the charity event. In total, more than $554,300 was donated during Saturday’s telethon, an increase of $88,000 over last year.

Warren Adelman, President and Chief Operating Officer of Go Daddy explained, ”The Arizona Humane Society receives no government funding, so it needs money from community members and local businesses to help provide care for the animals,”

Mr. Adelman shared the spotlight with Max, GoDaddy.com Founder and CEO Bob Parsons’ dog, who trotted the donation check across the stage on live television. Mr. Adelman later remarked, ”Max spent time rehearsing the special delivery and executed it like a champ.”

Last year, Go Daddy also helped support the telethon with both financial and technical assistance. In addition to a $50,000 check, Go Daddy jumped in and supplied a new Web address when the Arizona Humane Society’s old Web site crashed last year, unable to handle all the traffic generated by the telethon. The organization now has its web site, www.azhumane.org, registered and hosted by Go Daddy to ensure consistent, reliable service. GoDaddy.com employees also helped answer telephone calls during the seven-hour broadcast on Phoenix ABC affiliate KNXV.

Cheryl Naumann, President and CEO of the Arizona Humane Society offered, ”Go Daddy has been a good friend to us, providing funds and technical support, so we can focus on taking care of the animals. Last year they literally saved the online element of our telethon and this year they helped keep everything running smoothly - not to mention the generous financial donation.”

The Arizona Humane Society’s telethons not only raise money for animals in need, but also provide a program where viewers can learn valuable pet care tips, get pet training information, find out how to fight animal cruelty and meet dozens of animals that need new homes.
