FUNDRAISER for Mama Donna's 75th birthday! Long but hopefully worth the read.
We hope you will help us raise funds for some much needed improvements to the rescue. Our lofty goal is $7500. The bid for the chain link fence work in the two videos PLUS a repair to the large field fence where we have the reunion is coming in about $5500.
We are working on a grant proposal but we may well not be selected AND the maximum amount available is $4000 so we need help.
Even when new dogs are not coming in, we have to care for the ones we have. Six months of Simparica for just four dogs comes in at nearly $900. When we do have a new dog come in, the expenses are usually pretty steep; spay/neuter, all shots, microchip and often a dental can lead to a four figure vet bill.
The rescue exists on your donations. Still, we say with all our hearts, make sure you take care on YOUR needs and at least some of your wants before donating. If we have to, we will break the work into several pieces. That will drive up the overall cost because of the set up fees, but we are determined to continue to improve the rescue facility and reduce our maintenance which takes us away from the dogs.
You can donate via Zelle at gajrtapplications@gmail com or through PayPal on our website.

The link will say donate to any dog but you are donating to all of the current and future pups.
We are not doing a Go Fund Me because our Treasurer is a math person and ran a comparison on the PayPal fees and those for GFM.
We will ABSOLUTELY keep you informed of our progress and we thank you in advance for every dollar.
The amount over $1000 and up to $3000 will be matched dollar for dollar by a donor.
