Who doesn’t love a gift bag? Come to the Raffle for the Rescues!
The Raffle for the Rescues is now closed. Our thanks to everyone who entered! Donations to the cause will be accepted through 4/2010 through the links below…
I know, I know; we’ve been doing a lot of posts about our involvement with the Race for the Rescues. But can you blame us? We couldn’t be more proud to be involved, as the Race has raised over $150,000 for the abandoned animals of Los Angeles. And with our Raffle for the Rescues you can help too! A simple donation of $5 or more will register you for over $5000 in prizes. (that’s my Ted with the raffle tickets)
Why should you, our Southern California readers, come to the Race? Because, while we are proud to be do-gooders, we would never poo-poo the thrill of a fabulous gift bag. And if you visit us at the event on October 4th, a fabulous gift bag is exactly what you will get. Well, the first 200 people who buy $20 in raffle tickets will!
