So far in September, we have adopted out Sally, Stanford, Taylor, Eve, John Jacob, Bear, Gimp, Cindy, Nala, Kiara, Sarabi, Banner, Scarecrow, Jingle, Leopold, Kryptonite, Elizabeth, Cool Aid, Katherine, and Chi Chi.

I just wanted to inform everybody about BAF’s new fundraiser- a cookbook! A wonderful lady named Diana Franceschi is willing to put a lot of time and effort into making this cookbook for us all to enjoy. To start this thing off, we need a couple of things.

First off, we need to find people to sponsor the fundraiser by placing an ad in the cookbook. You can place a personal ad (to honor or in memory of a person or pet), or businesses are welcome to put their ad in it. There are 1/4 page (business card size), 1/3 page, 1/2 page, and full page ads available. You can put any number of words or pictures as long as they fit on the alotted space. All ads will be in black and white– no color. Please e-mail Diana Franceschi (dfranceschi@kanesbenator.com) for pricing and other details. We are hoping to recruit enough ads to pay for the printing of the actual cookbook. That way, the money we make selling the books will 100% benefit the Briarcliff Animal Foundation.

Second, we need you guys to send us recipes. We are asking for a donation of $5 per recipe. Please contact Diana for more details (dfranceschi@kanesbenator.com). We would prefer the donations to be in check form– no cash please (this is much easier to keep up with). Please make your check out to ‘Briarcliff Animal Foundation Cookbook’. Please let me know if you have any questions. We are hoping to have enough recipes by the end of December to start the process of actually making the cookbooks at the beginning of 2010.

If you know anybody who may be interested in putting an ad, donating a recipe, or buying a cookbook once they come out, please have them contact Diana.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED OR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. THANKS!
