I would suggest that Noah’s Ark, the animal sanctuary in Mellieħa, promote a plan for regular donations. Small enough that many people would be happy to give, say,€10 a month.

Let’s refer to it as ‘The 100 Club’, hoping they will find 100 people wanting to make a small gesture towards the wonderful work being done by all those associated with Noah’s Ark.

One could perhaps limit the support initially to 12 months.

However, I am sure most would want to continue because as soon as they realise the great joy shown by these abandoned friends, they will soon feel they are part of Noah’s Ark.

It is important that members actually visit on a regular basis, if possible.

That is what will turn it into a real family of people who will fork out far more than €10 a month from their support. Please cut this out, and show it to your friends. They will be glad you did.

If 25 supporters could ask three friends to join in this life-saving plan we will soon have ‘The 100 Club’ and Noah’s Ark will have a guaranteed extra €1,000 a month. Who knows?

It might soon become ‘The 200 Club’? I will pay my €120 up front to encourage others to join me.
