As you may have seen in the media recently, the economy is taking its toll on the shelter. But there's good news!
To help the shelter through these hard times, a past adopter has offered to match all donations in the month of June, up to $5,000 total! There are many ways you can help the shelter take advantage of this offer:
#1 Give: Perhaps you have a few dollars sitting, or you can skip one lunch this month or that special indulgence, and instead send those dollars to the shelter. Go to the Campaign page to Chip In (ChipIn forwards donations to our Paypal account and is secure)
#2 Organize a Group Gift: Perhaps you only have $2 sitting, but you know 20 people (think co-workers, Bible study, or your social club) who also have $2 sitting. Organize a group Giving Day. Together, your $2, and someone else’s $5, and another’s $1, can add up to something great!
#3 Spread the Word: Maybe you write for a newsletter. Or you know someone who’s been looking for a good cause. Is there a posting board at your grocery store or church? Hang a flyer! (Download our MS Word flyer)
#4 Add a Widget: If you have a Web site, blog, or social networking page, you can copy the widget on our ChipIn page and post it on your site.
#5 Keep Voting: What’s better than free money? The Shelter+ Challenge voting has been going great! Let’s keep it up and see what we can accomplish together!
#6 Share Your Ideas: Has something different worked for you or another group in the past? Know of another way to get help? Have a good suggestion to share? Send an email!
