Just One Thing... Last year we raised approximately £25k through fundraising thanks to the hardwork of our team and supporters, this year we are setting ourselves a target of £27k.... We are hoping that everyone can think of at least one thing that they can do to help raise money... This could be taking part in our online photo competition or auction, attending an event like Paws4Tea, organising a sponsored 'something', collecting raffle prizes, joining our bonus ball scheme and oohh so many gazillion other things that you could choose from. We will add some case studies of things that people do as we go along and have a lovely thermometer so we can keep track of how we are doing.  You will often see the message of can you open your heart and home to a foster dog, some people can which is brilliant, others like myself aren't in that postition so we have to find other ways to help and really as with most things that comes down to good old fashioned money. On average including the adoption fee we have to raise £250 to enable a dog to find a loving home.  Fundraising is a great way of making new friends, helping with a good cause and even giving you the possibility of getting yourself a bargain in the process at the auctions.  So what One Thing could you do?
