Book Fair and Bake Sale
Save your books, magazines, sturdy boxes and paper bags for Planned Pethood's Book Fair at the 577 Foundation.
The
book center will be operated by Planned Pethood from January 1, 2013 to
March 31, 2013. Through our volunteer efforts, we will receive 50% of
the monies donated & 50% is contributed to Read For Literacy which
helps hundreds of people learn to read.
We
cannot accept: damaged/musty smelling books, Encyclopedias/Reference
books, Text books, Readers Digest Novels & Magazines, National Geographic Magazines, Magazines over a year old, Books on tape, Albums & Movies Catalogs.
Hold
onto your books until March 2013. We will announce where and when you
can drop off your books, etc as we get closer to the date.
Can you . . . Help During The Sale?
We
need 7 people to work one day a week for the 13 weeks we are in charge
of the Book Center. For example, Person A will work only 13 days during
this 3 month period, on every Monday. Person B will work the 13
Tuesdays in that 3 month period. So on and so forth. The volunteers
tidy up the area, reshelf books, sweep the floor and organize donations
as they come in. It takes about an hour. You can do your one
hour anytime you want during the 16 hour day. Bring your family or
enjoy the quiet, alone time.
If
you haven't heard of the 577 Foundation or explored their property, you
really are missing out on a hidden jewel in our community.
Contact ed@plannedpethood.org if you can help. That's E.D. as in Executive Director, not Edward.

Many businesses offer United Way donations through Payroll Deductions. The United Way campaign has begun and will wrap up around the end of November. When you get your form to make a donation to the United Way of Greater Toledo, you can have 100% of those funds got directly to Planned Pethood.
In the section entitled "Payroll Deduction" under numbers 1 through 4,there is a line where you can write in Planned Pethood. You can see an example of the form below. In the past we use a code to denote PPI. But now, all you have to do is write in our name.
