I know, its been forever since I bloged, but today as I sit here and another bad thing has happen and I have decided that I'm done crying, and I'm ready for the next step in life. For those of you that don't know, I did not have the desired childhood, and sadly at 38 I'm still suffering from that. I really don't want to go into details, but I wanted to put that out there so everyone know where my passion for animals come from. They give unconditional love which is something that I am addicted to because I have never really had that. I hate to see any life suffering, and I often step out of the box to ease someone or something's pain. If that offends you, I suggest you pray for the wisdom to become a better person, because I feel strongly that the Lord has called upon me to make a difference, and I plan to continue this work that I'm very passionate about.
My pitty part is over, what's done is done, I'm moving on. If they don't like the drive that I have, if they don't understand me, if they cant love me for who I am, then that's their problem! my new personal goal that I'm working on is being positive and not letting cruel people get to me.
These days I find myself consumed in fund raising. Our lease for the adoption center is over Feb 28th 2010 and we need to raise money to pay off all our outstanding bills so we can raise money to move in to a more comfortable place for the animals to live till they are adopted. We also want a high traffic area so the animals will continue to get adopted at the rate we are use to. We really need to purchase a building so the rent wont cause us to be in the boat we are in now financially. We also want to put our thrift store in the same building because it will be a draw to the adoption center and the adoption center will be a draw for the Thrift store. We also don't want a land Lord saying what we can and cant do because we want to be able to rescue all breeds, and all critters!
With all that said here is a line up of Fundraiser's we have planned.
CURRENT EVENTS!
* Puppy Poo Bingo (see our face book for details)
* Live Music at Outer Loop by our very own Matt and Kadizzle Every Saturday from 6pm to 9pm! They are singing for tips! Last Saturday they got $116.00 in tips and Kadizzle took it to All Creatures and Paid on our Vet bill leaving a balance of $5500.00 So if you haven't heard them sing your missing out. They sound AWESOME!!!!!
* Donation Jars Last night I was at Outer Loop till 4am working on events and making jars to set up all over town in hopes to collect pocket change for our furbabies!
* Clearance at RePets - Everything is on sale for 50% off because we need the cash, ad we don't want to pack it up when we move. Great way to help us out is to buy your pet a toy or new leash!
Coming soon Events
* Stuff the RePets Van - Outer Loop donated supplies to get us thru the next few weeks however we will need more after that! We hope to set up at Walmart with our van in hopes people will donate what we need so we can use our money towards our bills and a down payment on a new adoption center.
* Outside Clothing Clearance at the Thrift store. When the weather gets better we will rope off a large area outside and with a $5 entrance fee you can get as many clothes as you want, name brand and all for just 27 cents each piece!!!!
* Corn Hole - We are working on prizes right now, but we plan to set up a corn hole game at Outer Loop where you purchase chances and if you hit the hole you can win prizes! IF ANYONE has something to donate Please let us know.
* We purchased some canvis and we are going to let our rescues paint them. After that we will put them up for sale. I'm hoping that we can get them into the capital arts center. this project makes me nervous but I'm up for the challenge!
* Pet Fair in Louisville Hosted by the paw Zone in Feb 2010 - We still need venders! let me know if you need more info!
* Grants, We are always looking for grants that can help us, if you know of any please let me know, We need all the help we can get.
