/ OUR NEW WEBSITE

Last month we launched our website, http://www.ashanimalrescue.com

We are very proud of it, and invite you to visit!

We have pictures of our animals in need of homes, as well as success stories
and updates from our friends. Also, our rehoming policy is posted so you can
read it before visiting us.

We've set up several ways you can help ASH through our site, for example,
through the "sponsor an animal", "How you can help", "Fundraising events",
or by downloading a standing order.

/ 1000 FRIENDS OF ASH

We have a dream that we hope will become a reality - this is our 1000
friends of ASH. We hope that we can have 1000 people become friends, and
that as a friend, you might donate 15 euro to the sanctuary once or a
few times per year. A few euro now and again might make little difference
to an individual, but to the sanctuary the cumulative effect of 1000 people
doing this will make a huge difference.

As a friend you will get:

* A special packet of ASH Christmas cards to use during the festive season
* A regular update on activities in the sanctuary
* A personal invitation to special ASH social and fundraising events

Download a 'Friends of ASH' form at the following webpage:
http://www.ashanimalrescue.com/FriendsOfAshDownload.html

To keep overhead and administration costs to a minimum, all communication
apart from the Christmas mailing will be done by email. All our computer,
website and email communication requirements have been donated free of charge
by various people.
