Many people are dying to know if we met our $3000 goal for the matching donation. The answer is YES! Not only did we match it, but went quite a ways over it. Hooray!! Thank you everyone for your generosity. FCCR is going to have a great start to 2010 thanks to our wonderful community that cares about these animals and FCCR's mission.
In addition, 2 of our wonderful supporters bought us a new washer and dryer. Both of our previous machines pooped out right before Christmas, and it is awfully hard to run an animal shelter without a functional washer and dryer. Thank you Len & Carol Mahoney for doing all of the research on new machines and donating them to us! Also a big thank you to staff member Mary Wolf for doing all of the laundry at her house for the week that we didn't have a functional washer and dryer! Now that is dedication!!
Last but not least, we received a BEAUTIFUL afghan from a group that calls themselves Afghans for Animals to use as a fundraiser. The afghan is 6 feet x 4 feet and has kitties on it. It was made by Lisa Craft who is the founder and coordinator for Afghans for Animals. We will be doing a drawing for the afghan. You can receive tickets to the drawing for a suggested $2 donation each. The drawing will take place on Jan. 31st. Pictures are below. :)
