CANDY GRAM SALE !!

The month of February  is synonymous with that  famous holiday VALENTINES DAY!This Valentines Day was a very special day for Golden Rescue In Naples.  Ms. Christie Sieger, teacher at the Colonial Elementary School in Ft. Myers, had a unique idea that would allow the  students to learn about love and care for animals and at the same time raise donations for our rescue.  The idea was submitted to the Principal, Ms Sandra Strausser, and was gladly accepted.   The event was called the CANDY GRAM SALE.  Candy grams, made by Christy, would be sold for $1.00 a piece.  The money collected would be donated to GRINinc and at the same time the students would learn what an animal needs:  water, food, exercise, medical care, shelter and lots and lots of love.  This fundraiser was a success.  These students  donated $600.00  to our rescue....which in turn was deposited in our FOREVER GOLDEN FUND!    
 
This truly was an act of love and dedication....  we thank you, Christy, and of course the wonderful students of Colonial Elementary School.
 
Oh yes...almost forgot...for all their efforts the students had a visit from two very special dogs D.J. and Riley who belong to Christy Sieger and Matt Weider.
