Calling Out For Help

A couple of years back many of you generously donated to help the havanese. I created baskets from all items you donated. I made them into baskets and then we raffled them off online and at the National and Regional Specialty. Well, I am asking for your help again, please. Many of you that donated also bought raffle tickets and won. They were sensational baskets and we need to do it again.

It must be new or look like new. It doesn't matter if it is small or large. Anything from grooming items, beds, crates, toys, carriers, food, treats, gates - anything possible for dogs or not for dogs. Anything that people will buy raffle tickets for so we can make money for the Havanese. Last time in one of the baskets we had a collection gift certificates from amazon to keg to cineplex. We had a sleepypod, toys, food, treats. It can be non dog items that people have interest in. Perhaps that Xmas gift that you don't really need?

Last time I did this it was highly successful and I want to be able to do the same. 

I must have all items no later than the start of May as I have to build the baskets and of course we want to give those that are unable to come to the show the opportunity to buy tickets. We can pick items up or you can drop them off here. 

I hate asking but when its for the havs - it's a good cause.

If you can help - please - let us know. 

Once baskets are completed I will put up a page where you can buy raffle tickets and hopefully win.
