Hi Everyone,
Remember the DIME A DAY CHANLENGE was put forth by Diane Strasser on this
list on or about June 17, 2008 which is where the $13.70 comes from...at that
time it was 137 days before the Nationals and we had several urgent cases of
GSD who needed our help with no end in sight...and she put forth the challenge
to Da List: WHAT IF EACH of the us put aside a DIME A DAY from now until the
Nationals = $13.70 and when EACH and EVERY one of us...that includes posters
and lurkers and everyone in between...step up to this awesome and VERY
ATTAINABLE challenge based on what all of us say about our love for our own
dogs
and for the breed itself....We can raise approx $15,000...YES that number is
correct!...that is the TOTAL you will come up with when EACH of us with our
one time saving of a DIME A DAY for 137 days sent it to Dawn and together it
will truly result in a miracle and a SAFE HAVEN for so many lost ones.
So Dawn will keep a tally, she says she has received $45 so far
today....that is 3.3 of us who have met the challenge...that leaves 1096.7 of
us who
still need to get our commitment of $13.70 to LHSH for Dawn and her Board
(INCLUDING of course ALL the volunteers) to continue the awesome work that
they do
for our wonderful breed. We can't all be in the trenches; we can't all drive;
we can't all foster; but I truly believe that ALL/EACH of us can meet this
challenge...I/WE spend far more than a DIME A DAY on our GSDs. DO NOT
MISUNDERSTAND...I am not saying we shouldn't; I intend to keep on giving my
dogs the
best that I can and I know and expect all of you to do the same. What I am
doing is urging all of us to take this opportunity to help give those less
fortunate GSDs a place where they will have a time of warmth, a full tummy,
easement of pain, and a time of love and caring. Dawn and the rest of the
LHSH
group of volunteers can only do so much physically, we need a place for them
to call their own and not have to turn away from those for whom we cannot
find even a foster home.
Pat, you read my mine! Egads! I was just finishing this post and I thought I
must mention those who are already at the Nationals and remind them to send
their commitment via a post or a friend and I even thought the same thought
about having Evan make an announcement to remind everyone about the DIME A DAY
CHALLENGE and possibly by doing so pick up some extra commitments from folks
who did not know about this wonderful opportunity.....Okay now, I am
expecting to see Dawn come back with another post before this night is
over...we
cannot end this day with only 3.3 out of 1100! OKAY NOW YOU HAVE THE POWER TO
MAKE A DIFFERENCE in the lives of those GSDs! JUST DO IT!...Pauline
