From Tina, President of Galgos del Sol....
"So where do we start? It all began back in 2011 when I thought it would be a great idea to set up GDS to help the Spanish galgo. To cut a long boring blood sweat and tears story short finally GDS has a breakthrough. Seriously I can't believe it.
An opportunity has arisen where GDS will now have a large plot of land which has already passed its first license to become a legal physical facility here in Spain.
OH MY GOD, that is music to my ears. No more running from fincas to fincas getting thru almost 1000 euros in fuel each month and best of all we have plans to build our own vet clinic on site, only those that have visited will know how many hours in the day this will save.
Hours saved means more time with the dogs rehabilitating and rescuing as well keeping up to date on those important papers and thank yous! So where do you come in???
Well, a kind anonymous generous donor who I just want to grab and give a huge hug to right now has offered to help fundraise for the centre. For every DOLLAR you donate he will match and triple. Yes, go back and read it again? How do we ever say thank you?
Guys, we need this centre, it will change the future of the galgos here in Murcia. We will be able to rescue so many more, fundraise on site, educate children on site, run a volunteer programme and that's just the start. The potential knows no end and we will be reaching for the stars whilst making huge strides.
WILL YOU HELP US WITH THIS FIRST STEP FOR THIS CENTRE? Every dollar you donate will be matched and tripled by an anonymous investor. Paypal galgosdelsol@hotmail.com now and clearly mark your donation for THE CENTRE!!!!!!!! Let's go go go!!!!!! "
In 24 hours donations have reached just over $15,000 , totally amazing, thank you for helping to make this happen.
