Dearest Hopalong Fosters and Volunteers,
I hope you’re enjoying the new, lower volume of emails- don’t worry, you didn't fall off of the list! I’m working on targeting people in smaller groups based on activity preference: if you like to drive, you’ll get driving emails, if you like to do office work, you’ll get office emails, etc. That being said, it’s REALLY important that you either get into the database or contact me and let me know what you like to do so you get your updates!
If you've never considered driving before or have driven in the past, we're really short on drivers, especially during the week. Please contact me if you're interested (lauren@hopalong.org). You might even get to use the Brand New Van!!!
Next item is much more fun (and we love to have fun!): tomorrow night (April 11th) is happy hour at Farley’s. Every month Farley’s donates a portion of their proceeds from Happy Hour to a nonprofit and tomorrow Hopalong is up! There will be a cat mobile there as well. The event is posted on Facebook; please share around! The event will be from 5-9 PM and Farley’s is located at 33 Grand Ave in Oakland.
Lastly, thanks to Volunteer David who pointed out that I’m slacking on letting you know who has been adopted! (Don’t worry, he said it much more nicely than that!) Some exciting recent adoptions included 2 black cats: Shadow (!!!) and Chatter, and some longer term dogs: Scarlett, Penelope, Cashmir Picante and Chip!
Hope you’re having a fabulous week and enjoying this heat,
