Charlie and Bandit fundraiser?

[go-fish]

I was wondering if I could put out the word on the site and try to bring awareness to my unit's dog's here in Iraq. We have raised these guys from puppies and they will be destroyed if we don't bring them home.
There is a program ran by SPCA International called Operation Baghdad Pups that actually does the logistical work of bringing the dogs home from Iraq. They ask that the service member pay $1000 per doge. It costs them over $2000 of their dime alone.
I've posted before about Charlie and Bandit. I don't expect to raise a whole lot of the money and just ask people to consider giving a few dollars or whatever they can. Charlie and Bandit mean an awful lot to all of us here.
I am working with a animal rescue shelter back home and they are helping with fund raising as well. The SPCA doesn't take multiple donations for a single "mission" for particular dogs, too big of a task I guess (?). They suggested working with smaller groups or people back home to help with fundraising. This is where the rescue shelter comes in. People can donate to them and they will "earmark" all the donations for Charlie and Bandit, then pay the single fee. I just want to get the word out and wanted to run it through the Administrators first.



Thank You,
John

Sure Johnny, start a thread in the outhouse.

Alright, thanks! I need to coordinate with the animal rescue shelter in Oklahoma to see if they are ready to handle funds specifically for Charlie and Bandit. They said they were willing to help and do some fundraising there for this cause. I don't know if they have Paypal or how they handle donations.
