For the Love of Cats, a non-profit rescue organization committed to saving the lives of cats and kittens in Collier County, is the first recipient of the United Church of Marco’s Bargain Basket Thrift Store in-store fundraising program.
The Bargain Basket donates to many local missions, including For the Love of Cats, who has enjoyed a partnership with the store for many years. This new fundraiser is being promoted at the Bargain Basket register with a large screen slideshow allowing them to spread awareness of vital local charities. The Bargain Basket attracts a wide variety of residents and visitors worldwide who can learn about and support these charities. Money for the selected charity is collected from spare change, money earned from their salvage items, and from people wishing to donate specifically to the designated charity.
“We are so humbled and honored that our friends at the Bargain Basket chose us to kickstart their new in- store fundraising program. The donation period was for June and July. We are overwhelmed by the generosity of their shoppers!” said Jan Rich, Founder of For the Love of Cats. “This has been a very tough year for cats and kittens in the county. We are operating way above our budget to meet the urgent needs of the community. This wonderful support is so greatly appreciated!”
