We're trying to get more and more collection tins out with businesses, but because we're such a small team with work and life commitments, it is slow going. However a wonderful success we've recently had is our 'charity' library that we set up in a very popular business in Sta Eularia.
The White Island Corner Shop is run by Sophia and Rod Ellington. Both are devoted cat lovers and have always supported the charity by hosting a collection tin. Gina, our finance volunteer, asked Sophia last year if she'd consider having a small library of books that people would then pay €1 to buy, or 50 cents to swap. All the money collected would be donated to Care4cats.
Even though they were short of space Rod and Sophia gave us the go ahead and one was set up.
We're very thankful that they did as it's proved to be a resounding success and we're very happy to report that over the last 12mths they have raised over €1097 - what a fantastic result!!!!!
We are so grateful to this lovely couple that we can't thank them enough. That amount of money will help nearly 40 cats have a better life through being neutered.
THANK YOU SOPHIA AND ROD!
If you live in Ibiza you can help support the two libraries we have operating, one is at White Island Corner Shop and the other is at Thomas Greens British Supermarket. Buy any book for 1 euro or swap one of yours for 50 cents. At Thomas Greens you need to choose to support us as your charity as he has 4 different boxes available.
Or perhaps you know or have a business where you think you could raise money for the charity. Just remember, every tin can help Ibiza's cats, so it is well worth it!
Here's a link showing the location of White Island: http://bit.ly/o1QT1h and one to Thomas Greens: http://tgibiza.co.uk/Web/
If you're a book lover then please help us by supporting these two libraries.
