Well, here I am again....looking for help - LOL Donations have dropped considerably for all charitable organizations and we are certainly no exception. In thinking over this major problem, I realize we need to find some grants so thus we need a person who is familiar with searching for grants and applying for them. Now, believe me, I know this is no easy task and I know I can't do it myself and keep on top of everything here at the sanctuary. Do any of our listers have any knowledge of grant writing or searching for grants and, if so, be willing to take on the task of applying for some....I know there are the usual ones....Petsmart, Petco, Petfinder, etc. but I just don't have the time to work on them. I will be able to help them through all the questions but I just can't pull it together. I know there are "paid" grant writers out there also and the fees vary. So if anyone is knowledgeable or knows of someone who would like to work with a 501c3 public charity in finding grants, please contact me. This list has NEVER let the seniors down yet and I know this is a big request but I am willing to bet someone out there in "lister land" can help *BEG* Thanks so much (again) The Team from Weeping Willow Pat Lukos _www.saravagsd.com_ (http://www.saravagsd.com/) Weeping Willow 2nd Chance German Shepherd Sanctuary _http://weepingwillowgsdsanctuary.com/_ (http://weepingwillowgsdsanctuary.com/) ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2011.
