Open House for HART (Homeless Animals Rescue Team)

Come prepared eat, drink, meet old and new friends and shop for the holidays:

• Get “Recipes from the HART,” the HART cookbook. Great holiday gift!
• Try the newest in our line of HART sauces: Awesome Sauce --it perfectly replaces your catsup, mustard, or BBQ sauce.
• Take home Hart’s own hot sauces (for humans only, please). Pick from Garlic Habanera Hot, Chipotle Hot; Jalapeño Hot; or XXX HOT.
• Biggest and best silent auction ever. Bid on lots of exciting items: 4 tickets to the January Wizards/Knicks Game, Club Acela Level, Parking pass included; Basket of Booze; Basket of Hot Sauces; Movie night basket; other gift baskets; certificates for dog training, hair design, and massage; art work; auto emergency kit; printer; computer camera; and many, many, more items. 100% of your purchase price will go directly to HART.
• Mountain of Money: Your high bid wins you a large container of spare change!! Only the luck winner will get to count it and really know how much it contains. You could make out big time
• 60/40 cash raffle.

Last year, with challenge donations, cash and pledges of over 200 guests at the party, and donations by those who could not attend but gave to support the event, YOUR generosity brought in $18,000. As always, there is no minimum donation required or expected, but your generous support is very welcomed. If you can't attend in person and would like to show your support, you can send a check with your contribution made out to HART to our home address as shown above. HART is a CFC/United Way #8363 non-profit organization and certainly welcomes your financial support.

We are pleased to let you know we already have challenge donations to match dollar for dollar your contributions up to the first $7,000 donated. So you have a wonderful opportunity to double your gift to HART. (And let us know if you, too, would like to make a challenge donation or donate items for the silent auction.)

This party is an open event with no fixed admission. Bring your party with you by inviting others. Dates, partners, spouses, family, friends, and well behaved children are all welcome. Just RSVP, if you can, by November 28, to tmansberg@ems.att.com or call Charlie or Terry at 703.573.0046 with an approximate number who will be attending. (Last minute guests are welcome, even if you were not able to RSVP.) Just let your folks know we hope they will make a donation to HART.

We look forward to seeing all of you as we kick off the Holiday Season and save some needy pets !
