So friends.....I know I'm constantly posting fundraising for Catarct Research. I have been part of this project since the beginning more than 6 years ago. American spaniel club Foundation is very thankful to everyone who has participated in anyway, shape or form. From donations, or our fundraising events. We are out asking for everyone to see if they can dig a little deeper. We have 70,000.00 left to raise in the last year of our contract. Dr. Aguirre and his team have made some huge headway in the research in the last 6 months which is great news for our breed. With the DNA marker breeders will be able to test parents and over time will be able to eliminate this disease. I speak from a now very personal level with ACE being diagnosed with Cataracts at 7.5 years old. I am neither embarrassed or ashamed to talk about this. As a breeder, we went above protocol and do our eye exams every 6 months on our stud dogs, not the 1 year suggestion . And yet we are still affected by this. So I had a thought.....what if, we had 250 people pledge just 25.00 a month for the next 12 months?? We would reach our 70,000.00 goal. Seems like it could be a possibility and an achievable goal. So I'm pleading with all of you to help us out.. If you cant do 25.00 maybe even just 10.00 a month?? Or even just a 1 time donation. To everyone who makes a monthly pledge through the month of August will get their name in a draw for a 200 sized wire crate stuffed with all things doggy, beds, toys, bowls, treats etc. Below is the link to ASCF on the Legacy Giving page, scroll to the bottom to the PayPal button where you can choose your donation amount, make it a monthly payment and choose payment option through credit card or paypal. Again thank you to everyone who has supported this cause
In many ways, a gift to the American Spaniel Club Foundation through your will, living trust, retirement fund remainders or other estate planning vehicle can be the perfect way to give. Future gifts planned today allow you to retain complete control of, and access to, your property for your own need...
