Spring Fundraiser–Double the Drawings, Double the Prizes

Posted on May 25, 2011 by Elizabeth Mazzetti

Our spring raffle was so successful last year that we are going to do it again this year. Tickets are $2 a piece or 12 tickets for $20. The prizes are:

$500 first prize $250 second prize $250 third prize

We will be holding two drawings this year, one at the Sacramento Picnic on June 11 and one at the Santa Barbara Picnic on July 9.

Every donation made in in honor of Mr. Marvin from Sacramento will enter you in the Sacramento drawing. Mr. Marvin came from the Tehama County Animal Shelter. He was found abandoned with another dog in a backyard. They don’t know how long they were there, but Mr. Marvin was curled up next to his dog pal who had already died. Mr. Marvin was emaciated, had cherry eye in both eyes and needed to be neutered. He probably has never known the comfort of a lap or dog bed or kindness from people, but he is a true survivor and a sweet, loving, gentle soul. He is now in a trial adoption with a new family. Keep your fingers crossed! Donate in Honor of Mr. Marvin.

Every donation made in honor of Sammy will enter you in the Santa Barbara drawing. Sammy had been wandering the streets of Lancaster for weeks trying to survive on his own. He was skittish, scared and starving. A local rescuer, Debbie, managed to catch him and brought him to us in Santa Barbara. His teeth were a mess and after a teeth cleaning where he had to have 22 teeth removed, he is so much happier. He is now a pampered, sweet, loving little boy waiting for his permanent home in foster home where he gots tons of love and two square meals a day. Life is good! Donate in Honor of Sammy.

For every $20 donation, you will be entered 12 times and once for every $2 donation. If you would like to help us sell tickets contact Elizabeth at elizabeth.mazzetti@cox.net

All proceeds of this raffle will go to pay off the medical expenses for Mr. Marvin, Sammy and our other Cockers.
