All you have to do is to hold a small event of some sort with friends or work colleagues to raise some sponsorship towards helping those rescues fulfil their 'Wish Lists' - and as detailed in the 'Wish List Project' thread. Some examples might be: To sell unwanted, second-hand books, or have a book bring & buy sale at home or work. To hold a coffee morning/evening. To organise a dog walk with a small participation fee to benefit one or more of the rescues. To hold a garage or lounge sale for this purpose If you can do any of these, or have another idea, PLEASE post in this thread and help to inspire others to do the same. The PCP will add goods to the value of at least 10% to any sums raised in this way as sponsorship to any of the rescues included on the 'Wish List Project'. As an extra incentive, there will be a collar and lead set to the first person to post their event here and carry it through, raising something for one of the rescues, PLUS a special TRPD 'Helping Hounds' Fridge Magnet to ALL who subsequently do the same.

Al, could you please put the link here again to the TRPD "business cards"? I have an idea (not yet sure whether it'll work / be permitted) and will need them for that purpose.
I'm sorry I can't be here much at the moment - I've got much more work going on than planned and most free minutes are, of course, spend with dogs, ducks, geese and the one and only better half!

I am hoping I've managed to attach a file with these in, Jutta. There were problems with the original one, so have revamped it. Fingers crossed. Attachments:

I am intrigued, Jutta... but will Jutta be first to bring her project to fruition? If anyone fancies being sponsored to fill sacks of stones from the Bird Garden...? Well, it was just a thought! I've lost count of how many sacks have been filled and moved so far, but there's no shortage of them left!

Right, sorry for the long wait, but as I said in the other thread, I'm not overly well at the moment and will be going away today. Therefore, I've given a printout explaining what this challenge/this forum is about to a friend of mine, together with lots of 'TRPD cards' and she said she would try to promote it at the next WI meeting here in the village (I'll still be away then, so can't go myself). I don't know if it will be successful or not - but if all of us tried something like that, whether it's the WI, the local "round table" or Lions Club, the football committee or the local flower show committee - whatever. Somebody there will be interested or at least give something to help!
