Operation Puppy Pack
April 24, 2014 Leave a comment
We are making it official and plan to file for non-profit status as soon as possible! Operation Puppy Pack is a group of volunteers that meet once a month to make care packages for homeless people with pets. All month long we look for deals and remind friends we need their used towels and backpacks and other items they may have around the house that they no longer want.
We now have a Post Office address: Operation Puppy Pack P.O. Box 1948 Carmichael, CA 95609
We are also raising money to cover the expenses of filing for incorporation and non-profit status. Please donate if you can at: http://www.youcaring.com/nonprofits/operation-puppy-pack-packing-for-the-future-/169777
In addition to the online fundraiser, we are accepting donations of household items to include in our yard sale. We will let you know where the yard sale will be held (and when) in the next week or so. Follow us on Facebook so you will always be up-to-date on the happenings of Operation Puppy Pack.
The types of things we like to include in our people and puppy packs are:
- Back Packs and reusable shopping bags
