CCI Needs Your Continued Support
As you probably know donations for most everything have been cut back
including those for Canine Companions. While we have collection
boxes located around the county, the amounts collected have decreased
over fifty percent and I hear that other organizations are experiencing
the same. Our one asset is still the Shares Program sponsored by
Savemart/Lucky Industries. Every three months they send us a check for
CCI based on the number of purchases made by those who use the Shares
card when checking out of the Savemart/Lucky grocery stores. So, this
pitch is for you to keep using the cards when you shop, and if you do
not have one, please feel free to call or e-mail and I will be happy to
send you a card(s). Remember, too, that your friends can use these free
cards as well. My email is democat@syix.com, phone (530) 743-7266. (and
while you are at it, how about being a puppy raiser for the program?)
Thanks to you, it all adds up, free money to help us train another
assistance dog for some lucky recipient.
