Hi gang, Here's my idea for a ferret shelter fundraiser. All profits from everything I'm selling on ebay for this month will go to the ferret shelter (or shelter umbrella organization) of the buyer's choice. As long as I know the shelter and can be reasonably sure that the funds will go to the critters, the buyer has a choice: They can either just tell me which shelter to send money to, OR they can just send me verification that they have sent the difference to the shelter, along with reimbursement for my postage, ebay fees, and paypal fees (if applicable), and I'll send them whatever they won. I'm not getting anything out of it but a way to convert excess stuff into something useful (and some fees for unsold stuff). If I can't verify the shelter or don't know anyone who has experience with them, I may stipulate that the money should go to an umbrella organization (like Support Our Shelters) to be used for the specified shelter. I thought it was a good idea--especially for people who want to donate anyway--but so far there hasn't been much response. Here's the link : http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZwclovergalQQhtZ-1 And keep looking. My connection is slow but I'm trying to do some housecleaning. Cross post if it'll help. Also, my summer vacation is now kicking in, so I'd like to renew of offer of web site help for shelters who don't have one. My skills are pretty basic, nothing fancy, but I can get a site with all the basic pages. I hope that'll help with adoptions, donations, and the like.
