We've hit a little bit of a snag with the fundraiser. Don't worry, the cookbook will come out later today
and 100% of the donations WILL go to a worthy animal welfare/rescue organization. The question right now is, which one?
I have attempted multiple times and ways (phone and email) to get ahold of the Humane Society of South Mississippi, and have not gotten any response from them. Because of this, we have now set up a separate PayPal fund so that we can go on with the fundraiser, which is administered by two of our Moderators (Gayef and myself). This is also so that we can keep you all updated about how much we raise, as well as giving us a better idea of how valuable this fundraiser could be for future recipients. (I had to be rather vague in the emails.)
So the question put to you, the members and the ones who have put forth so much effort for this fundraiser, is whether we should go ahead with sending the collected moneys to HSSM as advertised, or should we consider another charity that is more communicative/receptive to our donation?
I'll add a poll. Please vote ASAP as I need to finalize some things if we do change our recipient...
