From Deb:
FDMB and DCIN are both wonderful organizations that help Cats with Diabetes. FDMB is a message board that provides support and guidance to people who have kitties with diabetes. For those of you who know me, you know Spot, who I "adopted" when my brother Leo passed away, was diagnosed with diabetes in July of 1998 and without their support, I don't know if Spot would be alive today. DCIN is a wonderful organization that helps diabetic cats who have been discarded because their current owners did not or would not care for their diabetes or who's owners could not provide care for them any longer due to circumstance beyond their control. They help find foster homes for these kitties until they find their furever homes and provide financial assistance to the foster homes to take care of medical issues and their diabetic supplies.
So please, if you can, please buy a ticket. It is for a worthy cause!!
FDMB and DCIN FUNDRAISER INFORMATION:
This is a BASKET RAFFLE
Tickets are $5.00 each
There are five different baskets that you can choose to put your tickets in (see the baskets below)
You can purchase tickets with cash or check
Check to be made out to: Deb Pfeiffer
Mailing address: PM me on the FDMB or message me on Facebook for address, please! (Note from Venita--you also can email me at Venita@dcin.info for the address or additional questions and I will forward your email to Deb.)
Include the following information with your payment:
- Your name
- FDMB or FB Name
- your e-mail address
- A list of which basket you would like your ticket(s) to go into
- Let me know if you need a receipt for your donation.
I have "tickets" that I use for the raffle. I will scan your tickets into my scanner and e-mail a copy of your tickets to you. The other half of the ticket goes into the basket. If you need a receipt I will also scan the receipt and e-mail that to you also. I plan on pulling the winning tickets towards the Middle of January so that everyone has enough of time to participate. I realize that with Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa coming, funds may be tight for some people, so I'm hoping that after the holidays the money will be flowing freely again!!
There will be more items for the baskets as time goes on and I will make sure that I add pictures of those items for all to see. (Note from Venita--Please see Deb's Facebook page for additional items. I may not have the time to update this blog page for additional basket items.)
If you have any questions, please ask away!! I am hoping that we can raise a lot of money for these wonderful organizations. Thanks ahead of time!!
