Christmas Shopping with Mid-Antrim Animal Sanctuary November 8, 2011
Posted by Jonathan Mitchell in : Appeals , add a commentUnsure what to get someone for Christmas?
Buy-a-Brick: Make a donation to the Buy-a-Brick Appeal and receive a ‘brick’ certificate with your personal message which will be replicated in our memorial book and held in the new Sanctuary. All donations received will go directly into the new build fund
Kennel Sponsorship: For £100 annually you could sponsor a kennel for one year in the new Sanctuary premises, complete with your own personal message.
Long Term Resident: For £60 per year, you could sponsor one of our long term residents who are unable to find the loving home they deserve. You will receive regular updates, photos and letters and can feel free to visit at the Sanctuary and take them for a walk.
Visit our Charity Shop: Located on Church Street, Antrim – you could pick up a bargain and help a great cause at the same time.
Buy a 2012 calendar: Our ‘Bare Essentials’ calendar will be available from mid-November, and shows some of our staff and volunteers revealing those bare essentials in support of the new build.
Donations: Dog/cat toys, food, bedding etc are always welcome.
Here’s to a Merry Christmas to not only the Sanctuary ‘friends and family’, but also to the residents.
Thanks for Your Online Donations! October 23, 2011
Posted by Jonathan Mitchell in : Good News , add a commentA quick but heartfelt thanks from us all for your donations so far towards the new build, via JustGiving. We’ve raised well over £2,000 on there so far, and hope our supporters help us to hit the next landmark of £3,000. None of this includes, of course, the many and equally significant contributions by post, telephone, and so on. We’re just as grateful to all those donors.
You can see many of the donations and messages on our virtual ‘wall’ here (all thanks to the diligent work of dutiful secretary Diane). Since last time, we’re up to an amazing 269 bricks!
Don’t forget you can still donate by text, post, and online:
PHONE: Call us on
ONLINE: Go to justgiving.com/MAASBuyaBrick and make your donation

Thanks so very much for your continued support.
