[Dailydrool] Help for Dawn Jackson

[Moon Doggie Donna]

CROSS POSTING FROM TRI-STATE...

As many of you already know, one of our long time supporters/adopters, Dawn 
Jackson, has recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer.  She doesn't have 
much time left & her family is rallying around her & just keeping her 
comfortable.   Many of the friends she has made in the Basset Hound 
community have come to us asking "what can we do?".   What we decided to do 
was set up a YouCaring donation page in Dawn's name.  You can access it by 
clicking here:  www.youcaring.com/SupportForDawnJackson.  We did add a 
little extra incentive, too.

For every $5.00 donated, you will receive a ticket number emailed to you 
that will put you in a drawing to win one of two prizes. The first winner 
will receive a framed print by David Dowbyhuz (see attached).  It is  print 
#1 of 50 of "Junior".  It measures 14 1/2" X 17 1/2" & comes with  a 
certificate of authenticity.  The second winner will receive ten 1/2 lb 
bags of Moon Doggie Coffee with the winners' Basset Hound's photo on the 
label.  These would make great holiday gifts.  All of the money raised will 
go directly to Dawn Jackson's family to help with any expenses.  The winning 
tickets will be drawn at the SeptemberFest Picnic in  Pennsville, NJ on 
Sunday, September 15th.  Winner need not be present. (Note: Please do not 
mention on the YouCaring page that this is a raffle, due to online gambling 
restrictions).

Thank you so much for whatever you can contribute to this cause.  Dawn has a 
huge heart & spent years taking care of others in her job as an LPN.  She 
will be sorely missed by all that knew her.

Special thanks to Donna Funk for setting up the YouCaring page & handling 
the tickets, as well as donating the Moon Doggie Coffee!  And to Kathy 
Frisch for allowing us to use the print for this special fundraiser & for 
framing it so it's ready for hanging.  We have the best group of volunteers!
