A Charity Event 3. February 24, 2010
| Description | Dear friends, We hope you are having a great day and enjoying some of the holiday season. We send you good energy for a safe and joyous time. We are contacting you to ask if you can help promote our charity event benefiting Salthaven Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center. The event is being hosted on Wednesday February 24, 2010 from 6:00PM until 9:00PM. Our event is being hosted again at Waldo’s on King in the Covent Garden Market. We need your help. Please promote our event, feel free to donate silent auction items, make cash contributions or purchase tickets and attend the event. Contact me if you have any questions. This is our third charity event. During the past two events we raised almost $4,000 which was donated to Salthaven. Our events also helped raise awareness about the human impact upon local wildlife. The events were a sell-out and attendees enjoyed listening to the guest speakers Ed Holder, MP for London West and Brian Salt, Director of Salthaven. Please visit our website for a link to Salthaven’s website. I have attached a promotional flyer containing the details for this charity event. Please display it prominently. We are very grateful for your support and appreciate your help making this event a success. Sincerely, Jeve Sukhdeo Jeve’s Pet Care www.jevespetcare.com 519-204-5383 |
