Personal Fundraising
Create Your Own Personal Fundraising Page
Every year the League receives generous donations in honor of people, pets, special occasions, and in memory of loved ones. The reasons for these donations are endless but they all have the same purpose -- to help the homeless animals in our community. In fiscal 2007, the League received over $62,000 in honor of or in memory of a person or event.
Starting in July 2007, the League is offering a new, special way to honor your loved ones. Animal lovers can now create their own personalized fundraising Web pages to support the Animal Welfare League of Arlington. Its simple, fast, and free!
If you are celebrating a special occasion such as a birthday or a wedding, or even participating in an exciting event like a marathon, simply go to the Leagues Web site at www.awla.org/donate-personal-pages.shtml to create your own personalized Web page. You can even add a picture and a personal message. Once your page is created, you can e-mail it to your family and friends and ask them to make a donation to the League in lieu of traditional gifts. Donations can be made quickly and easily online with a credit card or a Visa or Mastercard debit card, 24 hours a day.
You can also create a memorial to a beloved person or pet. You can honor a special animal friend or an important person in your life by creating a memorial Web page and inviting friends to make a donation to the League.
Not only is this an exciting new opportunity to spread awareness and raise important funds, but it is effective. A team of climbers who scaled Mt. Everest raised $17,000 for breast cancer research using the same feature! Please feel free to try this new service for your next special occasion, holiday, or memorial. For more information, visit our Web site at www.awla.org, e-mail us at donate@awla.org, or call the Development Office at (703) 931-9241 x 216.
