Coordinate a Fundraiser

The Safe Harbor Animal Sanctuary GIFT ("Give It From The Heart") program provides a way for student groups and other organizations to help the sanctuary. If your class, company, or organization is looking for a service project, here are some ideas:

• Organize a supply drive
• Collect Pennies for Pets
• Hold a fund raiser
• Sponsor an educational seminar
• Sponsor advertising
• Collect items for our Rags-Into-Riches Rummage Sale Fundraisers

If you would like to organize a food or supply drive for the sanctuary, here are five easy steps to making a difference:

1. Call the Sanctuary Director at 573-243-9823 to find out what items are needed most. Useful items include high-quality, name-brand dry dog and cat food, and shelter equipment and supplies from our We Need It! List. Store-bought treats and toys are always welcomed.
2. Set a target date. Decide the date you'd like to present your items to the sanctuary and be sure to allow yourself 4-6 weeks for collecting the items. Don't forget to get permission first.
   Advertise. Spread the word about your collection with posters and flyers. Set up colorful donation boxes at convenient locations around the school, community or office. Offer an award to the student/employee or class/department that contributes the most items.
3. Stay positive. Don't give up if your collection starts off slowly. Be persistent and tell everyone you know their help is wanted and needed. Your success and dedication will be an inspiration to others!
4. Make a first-class delivery. Keep collecting until right before your target date, then schedule a time to deliver the items you've collected to the sanctuary.
5. Finally, when you're done, don't forget to celebrate! Let the local media know or write an article for the school and/or local newspapers and send thank you notes to sponsors and volunteers. Send us your Accomplishment Report so we can celebrate, too.
