Freedom Fundraiser: Compassionate Cookies

The International Street Dog Foundation is excited to announce a fundraiser that has been extended indefinitely. Thank you so much to Give a Dog a Bone for teaming with us to raise flight funds for our deserving dogs!


COMPASSIONATE COOKIES

 

ISDF is teaming up with Give a Dog a Bone's Marjon Tondravi for a fundraiser to raise flight money for our needy dogs who are hopefully adopted and traveling soon: ZeZeManja, and Simba.
USA supporters donating a minimum of $30 to www.istreetdog.com will receive a thank you gift kindly donated by GADAB (apologies, but at this time we are restricting the fundraiser to USA donors as international postage fees prohibit feasible overseas shipping). 
Marjon will fill a cheerful box with a 1/2 pound of home-baked dog cookies, plus an adorable pawprint tennis ball for your favorite pooch pal!
 

My dogs have sampled the many yummy wares GADAB has to offer and I can guarantee you firsthand that your own sweet peas will be thanking you with woofs and wags from their very first mouth-watering bite. 
Yummy cookies for your best friends…and they're for a good cause! Who can argue with that?
We arrived at the minimum donation requested based on the retail value of the gift packages (approximately $15), plus postal costs based off current shipping calculators (approximately $3.75). Because Marjon is generously donating these thank you gifts - including the ingredients, supplies, and packaging not to mention the time, energy, and loving effort - your donation translates into over $26 of net towards our doggies' flight funds.
So. You get your yummy dog cookies, at a small price above retail value…your pooch gets a very happy tummy…and best of all, our current needy canines get more than $26 closer to their fairy tale (tail) endings!
A win-win situation for donors and flying doggies alike!
Please indicate in your donation the name and mailing address of where you would like your thank you gift to be sent. 

This is an experiment, as we are always looking for new ways to support and fundraise and spread the word about dogs in need that we hope to help. We were pointed down this path by our many fellow lovers of GADAB's baking, and hope that our supporters will be inspired to help our dogs, while getting a little something back in return. 
We are especially grateful to our beloved baker for her generosity in helping these very deserving dogs - thank you so very much, Marjon!
And thank YOU, from the bottom of our hearts. 
And from the hearts of the dogs, whom your generous donations directly help. 
***We have no paid staff and no overhead costs, so 100% of every donation goes directly towards the care and transport of these deserving dogs. ***
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Thank you for considering helping an ISDF doggie, while making one of your own happy, too!
(And of course, anyone interested in simply donating towards flight funds, who prefer not to receive a thank you gift, are - as always - humbly and gratefully appreciated!)
WE ARE SO GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT TO DATE AND FOR YOUR FUTURE EFFORTS ON BEHALF OF THESE DOGS - WITHOUT YOUR HELP NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE!

Thank you so very much!!
Dawn, Izumi & Marjon
