Come on PTers!! Let's get some more money coming in for ALLY!!!!
I did have a PM from Julie today and she is going to get her friend to check into flights into DC to see if they are less expensive!
Not just because they are cheaper, but because I can only pick up on the weekend, and they don't ship "cargo" on weekends. Ally is considered cargo. So, we'd need to have someone else pick her up since I can't do a weekday.
Jenn, I think Emily offered to do that in an earlier post here, if Ally flies into DC, to save you the drive - she would meet you part way.
We'll see what the price is... :)
Yeah, we've been discussing it. She said she knew that they couldn't fly them on a weekend... I didn't know this. If I had sick days left, I could do a weekday, but I don't :( :( It stinks to be out of sick days and it's only February. I have to make it to June and not be sick. Ugh. I missed a bunch of days when I fell down my basement stairs, migraines, and just some "mental health" days, lol.
We'll figure it out... I'm sure Cheryl will pick her up like she did Connor, she had PM'd me and said she could so, that is a good thing!
I am saying prayers that we get Ally here to the USA safely!
The other option is that if there is someone in the NY region then maybe they could pick Ally up and hold her for a couple of days...
Soon as my check hits the bank, I will mail another donation to you. I WANT TO SEE THIS HAPPEN!
Could we start a fund raise thread? Anybody have anything to sell/donate for this worthy cause with all proceeds going to the air fare? I would be willing to make a cat bed (kitty condom). We donate the item, someone buys it, the person donating ships it the the buyer and the money goes to the pay pal account for that item... Anybody interested in doing this?
Just sent another (small) donation... hope it will help get Ally girl here to the US! :)
Just added three donations on to the total, and we are now up to $685.00!!
(the actual amount, due to paypal fees is $666.12). We're doing great, and
almost halfway there!
I think a fund raiser sounds good... any ideas on how to get one going?? I'm already participating in one for the one shelter I'm involved with, so can't push much more on this end. We're selling cheesecakes, pies and cakes from Pellman's.
I did ok selling my cellphone on ebay... that was a decent amount. Maybe if we have some people sell some things on ebay, or just have a yard sale, if you are in a WARM climate, and not in the snow bound northeast, lol.
I think we could start one in the marketplace (doing it all in ONE thread) Post pictures of what we will sell and a price. If someone wants it, they paypal you the money then it is put in the mail once you notify the seller the money is there... The donor pays shipping or it is included in the price asked?
More input is needed here. Willing donors? I know we got lost of arts and crafts people here who could help out if they have time and could donate something. (I think Pet related would go on here.....)
Any input from anyone else? PLEASE? We need help here......
Wow! We just got a huge donation! We are up to $835.00!! :D :D
COOL! Would be neat to hear about a slightly lower rate for getting Ally here...then the gap would narrow even MORE!
I have to figure out my wacky finances for a bit before I can look at giving more!
fingers crossed!
It is wonderful to see those numbers coming on up there! We are getting closer and closer to our goal!!! C'mon folks, let's get Ally HOME!!!
