Shop on eBay!

 

Shopping on eBay? Just visit our eBay Giving Works page linked from our website.     (Directly the address is: http://donations.ebay.com/charity/charity.jsp?NP_ID=26844)

If you buy items from our supporters, who have chosen to donate all or a percentage of their item’s sale price to us, that also helps support our animals.

 

 

We at Bobbi and the Strays want to Thank You for your continued support and wish you and your furry family a Wonderful, Happy, Healthy, and Safe Holiday Season!

Pay tribute to lost loved ones

Monday, October 5th, 2009
 
We have all lost cherished family members who happened to also be our pets.  Maybe a loved one of yours has recently lost a member of their animal family.  Maybe you would like to pay tribute to someone that you have lost.  There are a few ways that Bobbi and the Strays can help – and at the same time you can help our homeless dogs and cats.
 
GIFT DONATIONS - Give a meaningful gift to your family or friends and help an animal in need at the same time by giving a Gift Donation.  A Condolence Card - acknowledging your gift - will be sent to the recipient of your choice.
To find out more about this program – please follow this link – http://www.bobbiandthestrays.org/Donate2.aspx
 
IN MEMORIAM DONATIONS – Send a message from the heart in the memory of a loved one – human or animal. Donations will be acknowledged to families with a card.  For memoriam donations of $100 or more, loved ones will also be honored on their own In Memoriam page on our website.
To find out more about this program and to view the lovely tributes to those that have passed on – please follow this link – http://www.bobbiandthestrays.org/In_Memoriam.aspx
 
Gift Donations and In Memoriam Donations are a wonderful way to honor your loved one with the knowledge that your gift will help us help so many animals in need of care and loving homes.

And if you have recently lost a loved one we would like to send our condolences to you.  It is never easy for those that have been left behind when a loved one leaves us.  We truly understand your grief and your need to grieve.  If we can help - please do let us know. 

There may be a possibility that a new addition to your home may help heal your heart some.  Maybe you can pay tribute to the one who loved you but who had to leave you – by passing on your love to yet another dog or cat that could use some love.  Please contact us if and when you are ready to receive some furry love again.

Help Change the World!!!

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009
 
Do you have a bit of time to spare? Need some charity experience to add to your resume? Like interacting with the public? Have great computer skills?  Would you be willing to utilize your creative skills to help? Need something to keep your kids busy during weekends or the summer months?  
-
There are countless ways that you or someone you know can help Bobbi and the Strays rescue, care for, and find loving homes for countless dogs and cats. We are always in need of some great volunteers! In fact, without our volunteers, their compassion and dedication, and the many various ways they help our organization, Bobbi and the Strays would not even exist.  
 
If you, your children, friends, family, co-workers – anyone who loves animals really – want to find out more about some of the many ways to volunteer for Bobbi and the Strays please visit our website.
 
If you are a Professional or Business-Owner – there may have been ways to help that you had not even thought of too! How about sponsoring an Adoption or Fund-raising Event? You can even donate your professional or business services.
 
For children and young adults - volunteering can be a very rewarding learning experience that teaches respect, team-work, customer service, the proper way to handle and care for dogs and cats, and a bit more about the non-profit and animal related world. Children can help with special projects such as fund-raising drives, creating & handing out fliers, even helping at street-fairs – just to name a few. If your children are 16 years or older they can also volunteer at our shelter or adoption center where they can interact directly with our dogs & cats, as well as with the public. 
 
To volunteer, please visit us, call us at (718) 326-6070, or email volunteer@bobbicares.org.
 
As always – THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! We can not do it alone! : – )
