Jerry Green Dog Rescue is launching a festive schedule to help raise precious funds to combat the devastating financial blow the pandemic has dealt.
Although the charity’s retail and centre doors have bene forced to close during the second national lockdown – and all prospects of community fundraising are completely gone – the charity is determined to make Christmas magical.
19th November (continuing throughout the festive period)
Making Christmas special for our much-loved pets, or remembering those no longer with us, and helping to change the lives of homeless dogs.
‘Paw Prints on a Tree’ gives you the opportunity to celebrate, or remember, your beloved pet by decorating the tree at one of Jerry Green’s centres.
Visit our website here (from the 19/11/20) to find out more.
There is also ‘Paw Prints on a Tree’ in workplace locations that are open during lockdown. Should your establishment be open now or at any point this season, and you feel you would like to host a ‘Paw Prints on a Tree’ activity, email fundraising@jerrygreendogs.org.uk with your request.
The charity’s packs are free of charge and include 30 prints. They will also provide you with a collection box to collect the funds.
