Yep, we are at it again, guys! The Underground Secret Santa Society is hosting a SILENT AUCTION to benefit the HIDE E HOLE Ferret Rescue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Barb Carlson is the shelter operator. Many of you may have heard of the troubles Barb is dealing with. Her son was in an HORRIFIC vehicle accident last year and almost lost his life. He survived the accident and is paralyzed. Barb has been his primary caregiver, while working full-time and trying to run the HIDE E HOLE. The rescue is a 501{c}3 through TRFC {Three Rivers Ferret Council}. The shelter is a Registered NON-PROFIT in Penna. Barb has been running the shelter since 2002. They depend, as do all shelters, on the support of volunteers, sponsors, fundraising. ALL of the funds raised in this auction, will go directly into HIDE E HOLE's medical account. Barb, and the ferrets in her care, would sure appreciate it if you'd be able to check out this Benefit Auction, BID on and possibly WIN some of the items we have up for auction.
