Bonaire Animal Shelter

• Donation boxes at many restaurants and stores - such as Warehouse Bonaire, More 4 Less, Carib Inn, KFC, Post Office, etc
• One of the best gifts you can give is something that benefits the Bonaire Animal Shelter. There are great T-shirts for adults ($12) and kids ($8). And for only $6 you can get a Birthday Calendar with illustrations by artist Anna-Marie Kroes whose drawings depict some of the previous residents of the Shelter. All are found at the Shelter, Carib Inn, Dive Inn, Coco Palm Gardens or at the Manager’s Parties at Capt. Don’s Habitat on Monday, 6 to 7 pm, or Buddy Dive Friday, 5:30 to 7 pm.
• And, tank tops too!

• Support Bonaire provides a way for Americans to donate to their favorite Bonaire causes and claim charitable deduction on their American income tax. The Support Bonaire Web site now accepts credit card donations for the Bonaire Animal Shelter.

Very Good News:The Fundraiser show on the Freewinds last Sunday evening (March 18, 2007) brought in NAƒ5.450 to benefit the Shelter’s Sterilization Fund! Thanks especially to Dabney Lassiter who sold the majority of the tickets. It’s volunteers like Dabney who make the Shelter a place than can still exist, and in this case a place where people with little financial means can bring their pets to be sterilized.
Shelter Board Director Paul Wichers said the show was great and that special guests were Duo Fest third runners up: “Duo Dulsera” – Dynaida Figaroa and Wesley St. Jago.
