The small animals at our shelter (including the rabbits of course ) will NEVER NEVERwin this contest if I cannot get help from RO; if you guys each sent a few coins I know we would win

Please help the small animals win this contest at my shelter by taping coins ( maybe 2 quarters) to an index card, writing "Penny Wars for the small animals"on the card , place the card in an envelope (with correct postage) and mailing to the

Coulee Region Humane Society
911 Critter Court
Onalaska , Wisconsin 54650

Remember we only have until May 31st to get this done.
Please help us ray:

You also can send paper money if you wish and write ona card that you wish to have it converted into coins and placed into the small animal jar.
You can also make out a check to CRHS ( Coulee Region Humane Society )and write a note stating that it is to be converted into coins for the small animal jar.
I will change the paper money and checks and place it in the jar myself.


if you have a Paypal account and want to send some money directly to my paypal accountI can convert it into coins and take it to the shelter. Paypal will convert foreign currency so this is a way that folks from outside the US (except India) can send a little money if they wish.
My email with paypal is [email protected]

Could you guys do me a favor and send me a pm after you send the coins or cash or check or paypal $$so I will have an idea how we are doing ?

Thanks once more

Do they accept canadian coins?

 

[jcottonl02]

Yeah....I don't have any dollars...I have pounds? Does that count? How much is 2 quarters into pence? I think it would be like half a penny lol haha which doesn't exist.

How much is it to post overseas? I guess it would only be more if it was a package?

I should have thought of this before I posted.
Iam checking into this now; it appears that foreign coin currency cannot be tranferred to US coins in this area but I have to find out if it can be done in a larger city.

So for all you non US residents hold off until I get a definite answer

and all us US residents send what you can.

How very touched I am by everyone out of the US whowould send money for the small animals. I know that you guys would have done that andI appreciate that . if you are outside the country (except India) you can send $$ directly to my paypal account if you wish and I will convert it into coins and take to the shelter. my email with paypal is [email protected]
.
Heather also said that ( within the US ) if you want to send paper money that is fine;you can write that you want it converted into coins to be placed in the small animal jar
Thanks again everyone

Some of our international members may be able to go to their bank and get US funds to send.

Maureen I have American change. What's the best to send quarters, nickels, dimes, pennies. I'm a little confused on how it is counted.

Susan:?

 

[Maureen Las]

What the contest orignally was for is for people to just dump their spare change in the jarof their choice

I did not want to ask members to send a lot of money soI thought if everyone sent a little that it would add up.
If you have a lot of change, Susan, and you want to donate all of it I would take the change to the bank , have it converted into paper money and then send paper money with a note saying that itis for the Penny Wars contest for the small animals andyou want it converted into coins and placed in the small animal jar

Patti pmd me and wrote that it is way simper to send a bill than a lot of coins..so that is OK as long as you write a notestating that it should be converted into coins for the small animal jar... it should work out fine.

Thank you

If an interntional member wants to get US currency and send that ; that is fine also

 

[Maureen Las]

A check can also be converted into coins for the small animal jar.

 

[jcottonl02]

Would a bank change such a small amount of money? I would like a pound into 5 quarters please LOL!

But yeah I def would send if I had/can get dollars. I'll see if I can get to my bank in the next few days. Might be a week or so cos iv got 4 exams now. But 31st of may is the end isn't it?

I can Paypal $10 from the rescue fund into somebody's account if they'll forward it on.

:anyone:

 

[slavetoabunny]

If you want to send it to mine, I will forward it to the rescue. I think you have my email/paypal address.

 

[Mrs. PBJ]

If Patti can not get it I will I am going to send five bucks. This next week.

So let me know!

 

[slavetoabunny]

I received Kat's donation and will be sending mine and her's (and Pipp's if she sends it to me) on Monday. Hope you win!!!

 

[Maureen Las]

Thank you so very much Patti, Kat and Pipp
Ialso have aPaypal account and just discussed with Pipp thatI can also receive funds , convert it into change and take it to the shelter.
I was not aware that we could use paypal here. I believe that international currency can be converted through paypal.
I will edit my first post

For anyone inside or outside the country (except India) who would prefer to use paypal you can send it to my paypal account,; I will convert it to coins and deposit into the the small animal jar (it looks like we may need more than one )

my paypal email is [email protected]

thank you everyone
