ok...one and all...I AM BACK...and here to thank Princess Pepper for
getting this raffle started...she is SUCH a sweet little thing to help
me out like that...i know how much work it is to run one of these!!!
 
ok...so i am back...and relieved her of this job...so she can get back
to her life...:)
 
ok...first thing...this raffle has gone VERY slowly so far...we have
raised only just over $100.00...the last two years this raffle raised
over $1,100.00 each year...
 
this is for the ADV+ kids...we KNOW they have much more medical bills
than the other kids in shelters...with NO hope of being adopted
out...this is truly a labor of love by these very special shelter moms
and dads...who BTW...i have never seen ask for much of anything in the
way of help...
 
SO...let's get this raffle rolling!!!!!

"CHOOSE WHICH PRIZE PACKAGE YOU WANT" Raffle
 
You will be able to choose the Prize Package you wish to buy tickets for.
 
There are 8 Prize Packages so when you buy your tickets you will need to
tell me what Prize Package you wish to buy tickets for.  You can choose
more than one...split up the tickets however you want...1 here...3
there...2 somewhere else...all on 1...etc.

$$ to joanne...i have been/will be informed and tickets issued...so not
to worry...but let's get this raffle off the ground!!!!...these babies
really need this boost...and their shelter mommies and daddies can sure
use the $$ to defray some of the medical bills these kids rack up...
 
i am not saying regular shelters are any less important...i am just
saying that the adv+ shelters get less exposure and chances to
fundraise...
 
this is my pet project...has been...this being the third year... let's
make this raffle a great one...
 
thanks for all your support...without you we could not help as much as
we do...well...heck...without you...we could not help at all!!!
