We do almost everything in house to save money. There are a few things we do need help with.

Building supplies: adobes, bricks, half bricks, paving stones, vigas, cement. Wheel barrows. Large capacity water tanks. We're planning to break ground on some major additions and renovations. Priorities: more shade, more catchment, more indoor area for feeding and dog supply storage.

Dog Food -- Quality is very important for these guys. Please consider purchasing food through Critters and Me pet store. They know our preferences, and they'll even give you a discount on your donation.

Someone to take over the nonprofit bookkeeping.

Funds/materials for a dog kitchen/laundry room. A stainless steel dog wash sink. A Staber washing machine. (Thank you Willa Bandler!) Inquire about the specifics for materials.

Toner cartridges for a Hewlett Packard Color Laserjet 8550n. Inkjet cartridges for a Hewlett Packard Photosmart 8250, 8300.

A Southwest Windpower Air-X 400 wind turbine. Photovoltaic panels.

A new digital camera (higher resolution, better zoom, faster frame capture). The camera we have is adequate (6 megapixel, 10x zoom), but it's very time consuming to capture good pictures of these mobile beings. If you're upgrading to a new camera, monitor, or computer, please consider donating your old equipment to us. If we can't use it (or already have something that serves us better) we pass it on to other rescuers and groups that we work with.

Fund raising events. Distribute, follow up, and collect money from coin boxes placed at local businesses.

Poster distribution and printing. Can you commit to printing and posting our adoption posters twice a month? Maybe even pick up printed posters to distribute to some businesses in your area?

Backhoe work -- just a trench in easy to dig dirt, not too rocky.
