Description


The Animal Rescue Foundation, or ARF Illinois, is hosting our annual bowling event fundraiser at Fox Bowl in Wheaton on August 18, 2018.

This is our largest fundraiser of the year (with about 250 people in attendance), with much of the money generated for A.R.F. coming from silent auctions and raffles of donated items. That’s where we need your help. We would greatly appreciate donations of any products and/or services that you would be willing to give. In return, we recognize ALL event sponsors on social media and at the event.

We are calling upon your generosity in the hope that you will support our efforts on behalf of abused and at-risk animals by donating. These items would be used for a silent auction or a raffle item.

Our rescue is staffed entirely by unpaid volunteers and we receive no government funding. Therefore, we strive to keep our overhead very low and apply the proceeds of fundraisers like this bowling event directly to the care of kittens, cats, puppies, and dogs within our home-based foster care system.

I can provide my request on our letterhead and our 501(c)(3) letter from the IRS.
