It is the time of year when funds are tight. This is especially true for Support Our Shelters. We have helped shelters by providing both low cost ADV test kits and Melatonin Implants, helped several shelters with food and supplies and covered the huge medical expenses for the Michigan Breeder Dump. These expenses came to several thousand dollars. SOS is in need of funds! Here is a way for you to help SOS and at the same time, say thank-you to the special person or people in your life! Has someone done something especially nice for you this year? Has someone gone out of their way to help you? Do you have a special friend that you know you can always count on to be there for you? For Christmas, Support Our Shelters will be offering you a way to say 'Thank You' to that special person who has touched your life this year and at the same time, help out a shelter ferret! All it takes is a $5.00 donation to SOS. For a $5.00 donation, an Angel pin and a special thank-you card will be mailed to the person of your choice. You can make this an anonymous donation or request that your name be signed to the card. We will accept pin and thank-you card orders until December 10th for checks and money orders, Dec 14th for Paypal Payments. On December 15th, all the cards and pins will be sent out - arriving just in time for Christmas! Also, on December 23rd, the names of all the Angels will appear of a special webpage! To see the special Angel pin, please visit: http://www.supportourshelters.org/angels.html You can order by sending a check for $5.00 made out to SOS to: Judy Cooke 110 Jer-Be-Lou Blvd Panacea, FL 32346 or Sharon Bearden 1245 Curtis Switch Road Mineral Bluff, GA 30559 Or pay by Paypal to: <[log in to unmask]> Please include $1.00 processing fee for all Paypal Orders. Also include the name and address of the person you want the pin and card to be sent to and also include if you want this to be an anonymous gift or if you want your name signed to the card.
