Raffle to Benefit CAAWS Spay and Neuter Programs

I am going to put this out there, because I believe in what we do.  I have been with CAAWS (Capital Area Animal Welfare Society) since 1989 and on the board for the last twelve years.

The River City Quilt Guild lovingly donated a fabulous Puppy Quilt for us to raffle on June 30, 2013.  Chances are $5 each which you can purchase by going to www.caaws.org and downloading the form and sending it in to Libby ( the good looking blonde with my husband there.)

Lily - who could resist that face?
The quilt is 74 x 80 and was quilted by Charlene Harp who did my Elephant Quilt!  100% quilt shop quality fabrics for sure.  It is so beautiful and really a fun quilt to own.

What we do at CAAWS is amazing, but we are always looking for ways to bring money in so we can accomplish the saving of lives.  We receive no public support and exist on donations and

fundraisers from the generous people who open their hearts to animals.  We have no paid staff, we all work tirelessly to save future litters from suffering and find homes for what those cats and dogs who can come into our program.   We provide $25 coupons for use at local vets on S/N services and low income families can apply for our free S/N spots each month.

We placed over 70 dogs and 60 cats in loving homes last year and issued over 900 of those $25 coupons.   75 dogs from low income families were S/N and we S/N 350 feral cats across the city.

That's a lot of work!  Help us to keep going by buying a raffle ticket for this beautiful quilt!

Let me know if you have any questions.  And please consider purchasing a couple of tickets, you may just win!
