Special Projects
Special projects are those organised by TRPD where members of the public can purchase TRPD good on behalf of the nominated rescue or rescues.
For us to organise a special project we need to know what sorts of things the rescues are in need of. To find out what rescues are in need of we turn to the rescue representatives. If each rep could contact their rescue and see what was mostly needed we can organise a project.
We have found that people react best if there are named animals involved such as the sponsor dogs in The Ark appeal. Different dogs appeal to different people and being able to see a photo of the animal who was to benefit encourages people.
We are able to produce specific items as in the Tailends special project where waterproof bed covers were made as it is a retirement home for elderly dogs and many of which do not have full bladder control. These waterproof covers have enabled the staff to cut down on their washing as if an accident occurs the covers are simply wipe clean.
As well as individual rescue project we are also doing mixed projects such as the Blanket a Kitty Cat project & Collar a Pound Puppy project. These offer general items and people are always more than free to nominate their own personal choice of rescue during this type of project.
So if you are a rescue rep or would like to become one for your favourite rescue please let us know. We are always looking out for who we can arrange a project for next.
Any questions please feel free to post or PM me
