TODAY IS THE DAY!!!! ExtraGive is an online giving event hosted by the Lancaster County Community Foundation, and we ask you to donate that day through our ExtraGive link:
www.extragive.org/organizations/delaware-valley-golden-retriever-rescue-inc
(If you need assistance making your donation, please call us at 717-484-4799 or email Karen at karen@dvgrr.org.)
When you “Give Extra” that day, it’s no mystery that you’re helping dogs in need of rescue and second chances.
In addition to obvious expenses like food and veterinary care, there are so many hidden costs that go into operating our facility and carrying out our mission. Of course, it’s things like utilities, payroll, and insurances. But there are also plenty of costs that go into maintaining the facility, and things always seem to break or go wrong at the worst possible time.
It’s no mystery that, thanks to your support, DVGRR is one of the premier rescue organizations in the country, and every dollar we raise during the ExtraGive – both through direct donations and stretch pool dollars – goes right to the dogs. And it’s no mystery that we provide every dog that comes through our doors top-quality care, plenty of TLC, exercise, socialization, and all veterinary care they need.
It’s also no mystery that Lancaster County has a large concentration of puppy mills. With our Sanctuary and Project Home Life program, we’re able to help dogs rescued from these horrible conditions learn to live the way every dog should… without fear and in loving homes.
Please mark your calendar and plan to donate to DVGRR through the ExtraGive on Nov. 17th. Donate at: www.extragive.org/organizations/delaware-valley-golden-retriever-rescue-inc
In addition to the direct donations we receive that day, we can earn a portion of the stretch pool and possibly win monetary prizes throughout the day. As in the past, you can also elect to cover the processing fees, so all of your generosity goes right to the dogs. The stretch pool funds are awarded based on the number of unique donors* that give to DVGRR. Please encourage your friends, colleagues, and family to donate that day as well. It’s no mystery that even the smallest donation makes a huge difference!
Plus there are plenty of times throughout the day to boost your donation.
