EVENTS
We are very grateful to many supporters who work hard throughout the year fundraising for GIN but we are always in need of more helpers. If you feel you can organize an event, have a table at a car boot sale, organise a street / store collection, sponsored walk please contact us. We can provide literature to display and some merchandise to sell.
We can promote these events on our main charity website, Facebook and Twitter pages and do mailshots to supporters in the area to encourage support.
These events are very important for the charity as they not only raise much needed funds but they raise awareness of our work and the plight of the galgos. It is also good for the charity to have new members join us, often after they have picked up literature at an event they want to help, and some people have gone on to adopt one of our galgos.
Forthcoming Events
We, and supporters around the country, are now looking to book up events, organise street collections, dog walks etc., so please check our website and FB pages for news.
Thank you
Sponsored events can be added to our Justgiving site making it easier for people to sponsor on-line
Our Facebook page receives many “likes” and events can be placed on there to attract more visitors/sponsors. http://www.facebook.com/greyhoundsinneed
If you are able to help and would like one of our fundraising packs please phone us on 01784 483206 or email us at info@greyhoundsinneed.co.uk
