Donations & Fundraising

A key part of adopting is raising funds to help make the process happen. I am too prideful a person to ask for handouts, so we're trying to improvise. Steve and I have come up with a few different ideas that we'll put into process over the next few months. Right now we have 2 big ideas.

The first one is a big yard sale in August. I've already started pulling stuff out of closets, emptying drawers and bins. We have bags full of clothes and shoes as well. We need your donations! If you have stuff just lying around and live in the Piedmont area of NC, please e-mail me (n.denny1031(at)gmail.com) and we can work out details on getting the stuff to the sale site. We need anything you're willing to donate and every little bit helps out. I'll be posting more information about the date and time of the yard sale as it approaches
The small pile of stuff we currently have for the yard sale.
The second big initiative we're doing is asking small and locally owned businesses to donate to our AdoptTogether site (link in the side bar) and we will publish the company's logo or banner with a direct link back to the company's website. If you own a company or know someone who does, please let them know about this campaign. For any company willing to give a more substantial donation, we will provide other incentives. If you are or know someone who might be interested in this, please reach out to me at the e-mail address above.

Asking people to help us is going to be a long endeavor in this process, but we're willing to get out in the community, meet with people, and generate more buzz about our cause. Please share the blog as you please to help us spread the word. We gotta bring home Tiny Human!
