June 2003. Car Wash
$ 165
We are had our second annual car wash.
We first started writing letters to the editor of the newspaper, just as a reminder to all who we are, and our planes to have another care wash, and to remind other kids to be kind to animals.
We advertised the car wash in the newspaper, and the pennysavers. Because we give away the money to non-profit, we can do this for free.
It was a great sucess! We raised $ 165 . We got a money order, I signed it, along with Leah, the Supervisor and Dakota, the Holley NY Director..We mailed it, in form of a money order to The Paws of Gold Feline Rescue in Warsaw NY.
Thank you all! Without you, we could not have done this. You helped us help animals!

September 2003 Labor Daze Parade
set up by Ariel
Although this wasn't a fundraiser, it was to make aware to the public, kids can make a difference. The club walked the parade with their pets, and threw, not candy, but pet treats, and bird seed. It was very different and fun, but most of all, it was all about the animals! We didn't raise money but we sent a message to the public about who we were, our goals, and our commitment.

>adoption ads for rabbit and more gerbils
I, Darcie, am fostering 12 of 15 neglected gerbils that were siezed by the Wyoming County SPCA. I recieved a call on January 7th, 05 from the SPCA I had volunteered with, they needed a temporary foster home the gerbils, they didn't have enough room. I will care for them and get them into good shape. When I recieved them, they were dirty, greasy, dehydtrated, and skinny.
I am cleaned them up with baby wipes and a soft toothbrush and Johnsons baby tear free shampoo and water. It will take a few baths to get them clean, they are really yukky. I am feeding them a proper diet.
