Dave Kinkade\'s goal is to get as many bands, fans, musicians, labels, companies, promoters and everyone, involved and spreading the word. The drummer has M4P benefit shows in the works and companies like Axis Percussion backing his efforts.

According to Kinkade, the metal scene has really never done anything to this extent to try changing the impossibilities of the world. Explains the drummer:

\"Everyday, thousands upon thousands of innocent animals are put through torture, neglect and death. Not only by their so called “owners” but shelters also can’t afford to take care of all animals that are dropped at their doors and they have no choice but to gas the \"overstock\" of animals. People look at animals like they are objects that don\'t have feelings. They think animals can just be “put on a shelf” and forgotten about. (...) My mission is to educate the world about the true nature and effect of animal abuse and also help these animals find people who really care about them, who can provide foster care and/or permanent homes. Animal abuse is 100% absolute bulls@#t. (...) We are animal’s only voice. Help me spread that voice and really make a difference.\"
