The GSPCA and all the team and animals would like to say a massive thank you to Yasemin Pates who recently held a raffle fund raiser in aid of the GSPCA and Guernsey welfare.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “What a wonderful message we had recently from Yas Pates.”
“She messaged to let us know we was running a fund raising raffle and what a great night it must have been with over 50 prizes and raising an incredible £1351 in aid of the GSPCA and Guernsey Welfare.”
“From the pictures it looked like a fabulous evening with amazing prizes.”
Last week the GSPCA had a visit from two young ladies called Jasmine and Robyn.
At only 11 years old the kind hearted supporters of the GSPCA decided to do something special to help raise funds for the 24/7 work that goes on and the BIG BUILD.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “At the GSPCA we have to say a very special thank you to two 11 year old girls called Jasmine and Robyn.”
The GSPCA couldn’t do so much without incredibly kind islanders, businesses and supporters.
This week the GSPCA were invited along to Duquemin & Ozanne for an incredibly kind donation.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “Yesterday I popped along to the team at Duquemin & Ozanne who moved into their new premises in the Summer.”
It is amazing how we are supported in such a range of ways at the GSPCA.
We need to say a huge thanks to Bourse Trust Company who recently held a cake sale in aid of our 24/7 work helping 1000’s of animals every year and raised an amazing £103.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “We are in awe in the many ways those that care about our animal welfare work support us at the GSPCA carry out our 24/7 work.”
“We recently received an amazing donation of £103 from Bourse Trust Company who held a cake sale in aid of all of what we do at the GSPCA.”
Last month at the GSPCA we posted this lovely plea for sponsorship and support for a very kind person wanting to support local charities –
‘Please Sponsor Alex Murrell’s Golf Challenge for GSPCA, the Guernsey Blind Association & Guernsey Alzheimer's Association
Alex Murrell is raising funds for the GSPCA, Guernsey Blind Association ( La Grande Mare Golf Club Mens Captain's charity) and Guernsey Alzheimer's Association. (Lady Captain's charity)
The GSPCA would like to say a huge thanks to volunteer Karen Brozka for making cards and selling them to raise funds for our animal welfare work and the many animals in our care during lockdown.
Karen said “Hope you are well and managing to get through this challenging time.”
“As Baxter (my goldie) and I have not been able to go out and rattle the tin for you lately, I decided to do a little fund raising.”
“Not much, £100, but hopefully this will help towards hedgehog meals or a few runs at food etc.”
During lockdown we have been touched by many amazing stories of those wanting to support the work of the GSPCA during these very difficult days.
Here is another we really want to share with you.
Vicky Nagy tells us all about her kind son Kobi -
‘My son is called Kobi Nagy hes 11 years old and attends Amherst Primary School.
His favourite animals are Sloths & he would love a golden retriever one day.
He chose the GSPCA as it's for the animals and wanted to help.
When he gets older he would like to work for British Airways as cabin crew.
The GSPCA was founded in 1873 and to help celebrate 143 years caring for animals in Guernsey we are asking for your help.
There are many ways you, your school, group, work place, business can help celebrate.
The GSPCA week starts 8th February and celebrations will carry on until the 14th with our anniversary being Valentines Day the 14th February.
