I wanted to share some exciting news of mine from a humanitarian project I just completed. The goal of my project was to raise donations for my local animal shelter by selling or 'trading' cookies donated by a local bakery. I discussed with the owner of the bakery and he was more then happy to donate. Once that was done, I arranged a meeting with the owner of the local Petsmart to hold the event. He was more then willing to allow us to have it there. After all the hard stuff was out of the way, @Arrienn was kind enough to make a flyer for my event. (Thanks again, Arrienn!) The basic idea of it was people could donate an item like, towels/blankets, dog or cat good, treats, toy or anything else needed for the animal shelter and they could receive a cookie! Or they could just purchase a cookie. After five hours of trading and selling I ended up with $105 in cash for the shelter and, 2 large bags of dog food 2 medium bags of dog food 1 large cat food 1 small cat food 5 box/bagged dog treats 1 opened dog chow 1 small boxed dog food 7 cans dog food 15 cans dog food 4 used towels 1 used blanket 3 toy stalkings (8 toys each) 1 chew toy Everything is equal to over $200 for the animal shelter! I just thought I'd shared the excitement with you guys. WeednFeed, baldie, Damage_inc- and 27 others 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Efforts like yours are the backbone behind local shelters. For anybody that's ever considered donating the those tear jerker ASPCA commercials on TV please don't do it. They claim to be a national organization when nothing could be further from the truth. The fact is that the tens of millions of dollars those commercials bring in every year all go the the Brooklyn NY humane society and almost nothing goes other shelters. The board of directors and officers for this "non profit" organization all make huge salaries and the entire advertising campaign is a scam.

We have some members that takes rescued or neglected pets that need to be returned to a forever home but some have been so abused and neglected they take weeks or even months to have them be returned to a loving home! I also have several friends that do this same kind of work and while it hurts when they have to give them up it is also very rewarding much in the same way what you have done is! I mentioned to some of these friends to share pictures with us on facebook and some have told me they have had some amazing forever home stories! What I think is absolutely awesome about all this is these and people like you get little or no financial rewards for doing this great work! I take my hat off to you Rascal and others involved cause you rarely hear of this need or if you do most people end up turning away and forgetting about how great the need is! One point before I go is this work isn't for just anyone it takes a special kind of person just as it does with ill, sick, or injured people! Thank you for sharing and doing this for those unable to help themselves! <3 Edited December 30, 2013 by BigPapaDean Rascal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
