Money for Mops!

We owe a big thank you to Dori Tomra of Prince George, who recently undertook a unique collection drive on our behalf. If you have ever shopped at Canadian Tire you will know that you receive Canadian Tire “money” towards future purchases. Many people don’t bother to use this “money”, so Dori collected $26.15 of it amongst her friends. This donation will help us to buy four new brooms, a mop, and some scrubbers. These are some of the essential cleaning supplies we go through each month at the Refuge, to keep the parrots’ residences clean and healthy.

Perhaps others will be inspired by Dori’s efforts to take up similar collections — to have fun while helping our special birds at the same time. Many thanks to Dori for sparking a creative fundraising effort for the Refuge!

  1. Thank you so much for the wonderful thank you. I have already started to collect more Canadian Tire money. And I have all my friends digging up more for you.

    PG Pawn, my dad’s store also have a can sitting in the store for donations.

    We printed your logo and taped it to the can, and I also printed out all the info you provided, and taped it all over the store.

    Well is an awesome charity, I am very proud to be a part of it.

    So hugs from Prince George BC, and I’m off to collect more money…

    Love
    Dori Tomra
