Fundraiser for SVAS, Minot

Hello, My name is Sam Gilmore and my parents are Tina and Bruce Chapman. I'm reaching out because I am volunteering on the Fundraising and Events Committee for the Souris Valley Animal Shelter, Minot, and we are in need of item or basket donations for a silent auction for our "Spayghetti and No Balls" dinner and pet fashion show on Nov 7th. I've heard so many great things about the Dakota Cruisers through my parents and I was hoping the club might be willing to donate or purchase items we could use in a gift basket. We have different themed baskets for our silent auction, so just about any donation would be really helpful. Fundraising for this event supports our "Spay it Forward" program which helps cover spay/neuter costs for animals that come into the shelter, as well as assist those who may need financial assistance with spaying/neutering their pet. Ordinarily, I would wait until your next general meeting to bring this up to the board, but since our event is the day after your next meeting, I thought it might be more helpful to ask for your help before then. Please let me know if there is any way you or the club might be able to help SVAS with this event. If you have additional questions, you can contact me at [email protected] or at 509-595-9541. Thank you and have a great weekend. -Sam Gilmore
