Hi Friends,
At the moment I am excited beyond belief, scared, nervous, worried and happy all at one time.
I just got off the phone with the agency and the lady there was very nice. She agreed to work out a payment plan with us, and reduce the fees a little. If I can raise the funds I need thru the various fundraisers and grants I applied for, I'll be going soon.
I am scheduled to travel to see Misha memorial Day weekend.
As far as raising funds here is what I did....
Applied for grants
put out donation jars at various stores in my area
Set up a trust account to collect donations
will hold a yard/bake sale this weekend
Spoke with local editor at newpaper about a story on Misha
Last started a fundraiser "I SUPPORT ADOPTION"
I had key chains made up that say "I SUPPORT ADOPTION"
that I am going to sell to everyone and anyone interested for $6.00 each. All the money will go into the Misha Fund trust set up by our local bank.
Any money left over after we adopt Misha will be
put into a grant or loan account for other people like me who need help paying the adoption fees.Last started a fundraiser "I SUPPORT ADOPTION"
Thanks for all your support.
WEndy
