Have a Heart 'Grey'la fundraiser and silent auction · Silent auction/door prize donations
· Invitations to the Have a Heart 'Grey'la were mailed on Saturday, Jan. 19. Watch your mailbox! If you don't receive an invitation, it means we don't have a good snail mail address for you. Email gpact@gpacentraltexas.org with your mailing address and we'll drop one in the mail to you. Greyhound Pets of America-Central Texas is hosting its first-ever Have a Heart ‘Grey’la (rhymes with gala) fundraiser on Saturday, Feb. 9, 2008, at the Zilker Park Clubhouse. GPA-CT's goal is to have 200 people at this fundraiser, paying a minimum of $25/person or $40/couple to attend. We will have live music, hors d’oeuvres, delicious desserts and wines, door prizes, and a silent auction. GPA-CT is inviting interested friends, family and community members to attend and to help raise funds to support GPA-CT's mission to find forever homes for retired racing greyhounds. |
