fundraising

Those of you that know me or read the blog regularly will know I was one of the 5 students from Newcastle college who designed and painted a Snowdog for the Wild in Art Great North Snowdog trail and now I am trying to raise money to bid for our dog known as Wor Geordie when they are auctioned in December.  If we can raise enough money to bid the Snowdog will come and be a permanent fixture and inspiration at the college.  All the money raised from the auction goes to St Oswald's Hospice so its all for an excellent cause.

Its a tall task as the reserve price for any dog is £4000 - but I'm ever optimistic and what ever happens the Hospice will benefit as any money we do raise will go tot he Hospice what ever.  

To raise the money I have set up a crowdfunding page on 'justgiving' - an interesting experience, I didn't get it quite right the first time round but the site was really helpful and gave me positive feedback and I sorted the glitches - checked it with college and now the page is live so if you are feeling generous here is the link

snappy link ha ha but it works - remember all the money raised will go to St Oswald's Hospice even if we don't meet the target and if by some remote chance we get too much it will still all go to the hospice

I'll keep you posted
thanks
