For my project I decided to help out the local SPCA considering they don't get much help from our community. First of all I set up a day I was able to have the fundraiser which was Saturday May 2nd, and then I made up flyer's promoting the donation day. I then made a spring cleaning basket filled with cleaning supplies and I raffled it off for $1.00 a chance. I also made a donation can up for anyone who just wanted to donate money. The fundraiser seemed to be a success considering I raised $140.00 for the Clearfield County SPCA. I was glad to do this project because it was for such a good cause. Throughout the process of my project I learned that some people are not aware of what the SPCA is. It was after I told them a little more about the organization that they wanted to donate money to the cause. I was very surprised when I got a few responses of " What is the SPCA?". Those people who were not aware of what the organization was are now a little more educated on it and will hopefully be supportive of them. I also learned that people can be rude and not even acknowledge organizations such as the SPCA. Overall I think this project made me realize that doing things and helping out the community isn't so bad after all.I thought this project was a good experience for me and I am glad I spent the time to get more educated on what the SPCA really is. I am also glad I got to learn what they do at the SPCA and most of all learn how I can help them out. Even if its giving so much as a bag of dog food to them they appreciate every bit of it.
