Hi everyone, I haven't written in quite awhile. I still stay busier than I'd like to be. :) My numbers are down but these sweet, old hospice kids take up quite a bit of time, one with a recent surgery and some dentals the past two weeks, the loss of Chunk who some of you may know :( and 3 who still need surgery. I've also been trying to do some odd jobs to help with expenses. For those of you who have the time some of the mystery shopping jobs don't pay much but it does help when you finally get paid. If anyone is interested for your area, contact me and I'll send you a link for legitimate companies. Never pay to become a mystery/secret shopper/field agent or whatever term they use. The exciting news... A local Sun Trust Bank Manager came over with information that will benefit our shelters plus other charities. This promotion "My Cause" https://promotion.suntrust.com/mycause/ only runs through Oct. 12th and SOS or any shelter or charity who is a 501(c)3 can benefit. Who ever opens a personal or business account and uses the check card provided by November 15th can either have $100.00 donated to the charity listed at www.guidestar.org or a $50.00 check card for themselves. Sun Trust Banks are in many S. Eastern states including Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia. Here's the link where you may find a branch close to you. <https://www.suntrust.com/portal/server.pt?space=CommunityPage&control=SetCommunity&CommunityID=1250> (you may need to copy and paste the long url) There's no limit on how many $100.00 donations can be made to any of the Guide Star charities. It's a wonderful way to raise funds for SOS and for the shelters who have the 501(c)3 non-profit status. Donations would be sent out by December 31st and the opened account must still be active. You will need the Tax ID number for SOS: 501(c)3 non-profit Tax ID: 23-3062176 Encourage all your friends, family, co-workers, etc. to get Sun Trust Accounts opened! Blessings to all, Jackie The Dook Nook [Posted in FML 5708]
