Post: Get a Grip Raffle

Posted by kathy on 6/02/07

A store I shop at is having a raffle for the Indonesian
Parrot Project and the prize is a Get a Grip. Just thought
I'd share, here is the newsletter that went out.

QUOTE:

BoBo's Playhouse is having a very special raffle this month
to raise funds for http://www.indonesian-parrot-
project.org/ , an EXTREMELY worthy cause and a cause that I
carry very close to my heart living in a houseful of birds
from this region.

We are pleased to announce that we will be raffling a
medium-short Get a Grip (or for those w/ smaller birds a
small) for the month of June. Every $10 worth of product
purchased (subtotal) will earn you a ticket and chance to
win the Get-a-Grip. I know many of you may already have a
Get a Grip but you can always donate it to your parrot
rescue (we will ship it to any parrot rescue address you
request within the continental USA or Canada) or put it
away for the day your birds "kill" the one you have.

BoBo's Playhouse will in turn donate 10% of final sales to
the Indonesian Parrot Project. Not merely 10% of profit
from sales but 10% of the total sales!! BoBo's Playhouse is
also covering the cost of the GAG and shipping, so if you
win it costs you NOTHING to get it to your door!

If you do not plan on purchasing any items this month, I'd
like to encourage you to PLEASE make a direct donation to
IPP/PBW. All donations to them are tax deductible and you
will be helping to keep the wild in the wildlife and out of
poacher's hands. To read more about the awesome success of
this project please visit
http://bobosplayhouse.com/sunshop/index.php?
action=IndonesianParrotProject (there is a link at the
bottom of the newsletter to visit their site).

Please pass on the info to your other bird friends. You
need not pass on the raffle information if you don't want
to but I do ask that you pass on the information that the
IPP/PBW is in need of money and that this is the first
formal appeal for donations in their 8 year history. They
obviously handle their finances very well! Don't think to
yourself that,"I only have $5 to spare" ... because every
dollar counts when donated directly to IPP/PBW. If we can
get 1000 people to donate only $1 that's $1000 that this
project doesn't have, $5 times 1000 people $5000! It adds
up so easily by everyone just giving a little!!

Rules of the raffle are posted on the front page of
www.BoBosPlayhouse.com . Good luck and have fun!
We thank you for your patronage!!
