WPRAS needs this
1 comment
WPRAS has never really had very much help with funds from the community. The shelter is also very small, three rooms for cats to roam free and two rooms with cages. witht the makeover they could expand. They started one of those thermometer things a while back showing their goal of 50,000 dollars and how far they are now, 500. It hasn't gone up for about 1 and a half years. The stuff the sell at the thrift shop is sold for very little money, clothes are about a quarter per garment. They always struggle to pay the bills. Donations are few and very very far between. This is our only chance, we worked so hard. the community didn't help very much in winning this. The top 15 are basically the only ones who were constantly helping and making points. All of the rest of the wpras supporters were referred and got points that way and didn't do anything else. This is a very small town with about 10,866 people (at least thats what the last census says) and with only 1/20 of the people knowing about zootoo and less than half of them actually doing something about it thats not very much help. my family worked every day to try to get the max # of points allowed per day and we barely made it. We stayed up till 11 and midnight and later, my brother and I were very exhausted when we had to go to school the next day. I can count on 2 hands the people that actually tried their best. well i think you got the point, not many people helped, a select few of use worked hard and brought us to the top 20 and if we don't win now we would be devastated. This is why we should win the million dollar makeover.
