Items For The Charity Auction

Do you have any interesting furry-related items or services to offer? A rare piece of art or writing? Perhaps an artist who has an extra commission slot available? If you have any of these, please give some thought to donating your items or skills to Furnal Equinox's Charity Auction.

We've supported the Mississauga Humane Society for the last four years and raised over $12,000 for this very worthy charity. The funds that we raise don't go to overhead, salaries, or keeping animals in cages. All of the MHS's work is done out of the homes of their numerous volunteers, who provide foster care for animals until they can find "Forever Homes" for them.

Your generosity makes a big difference to the MHS every year — and we know that you can do the same again!

To donate an item to this year's Charity Auction, e-mail Shane (charity auction coordinator) at woof@eol.ca, or drop by the auction / art show room at the convention on Friday to enter your item.

Support our Charity

We're pleased to announce that FE is once again supporting the Mississauga Humane Society (MHS) as its official charity in 2013.

Founded in 1999, the Mississauga Humane Society strives to find "Forever Homes" for cats and dogs regardless of their background, age, health or previous behavioural issues. They have no dedicated office or overhead: all animals are cared for by foster owners, and all of their donations go towards food, veterinary bills and other expenses.

FE was featured in the Humane Society's April 2012 Pet Chat newsletter (see page 9) -- they came to the con for a day last year and were blown away by your generosity!

Over the first three years of FE, we have raised over $12,000 for the MHS, including $8,000 last year alone! Can the troops beat it this year? We sure hope so!

We'll be running the Charity Auction throughout the convention, culminating in the voice auction on Sunday afternoon. So we'd appreciate donations items to auction! We're especially looking for artwork and costume commissions, but any other special items are welcome too. You can e-mail us at charity@furnalequinox.com.

More information about the MHS and how to support them are available on their website at www.mississaugahumanesociety.com.
