Subject: Request for Gift Basket Raffle/Silent Auction Item Donation

To Whom it may concern: 

Tax ID: 20-2516008

As a local, foster only, all volunteer-based dog rescue, we rely on kind-hearted donations to fuel the work we do. To continue this crucial mission, we’re hosting a fundraiser bowling event, “Pins for Paws”, on February 16, 2025, at Fox Bowl in Wheaton. This event will raise money that will allow us to continue to tackle the difficult expenses we encounter. 

At our “Pins for Paws” event, we are excited to hold both a silent auction and gift basket raffle. We are reaching out to see if your organization may be interested in donating an item, experience, or funds to this great cause. Donations can range from complete baskets, individual items that can be bundled with other donated items, experiences such as sporting event tickets or hotel stays, or even monetary donations that can be intended for the rescue directly or put towards purchasing other event items. Your contribution is tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law but more importantly, you’ll have the satisfaction of supporting a cause that is making a real difference in our community. 

If interested in contributing to Pins for Paws, please contact us by January 31, 2025, to confirm your donation. Items may be addressed to: Magnificent Mutts Rescue and can be dropped off at or mailed to: 755 N. Wolf Rd., Hillside, IL 60162.

We greatly appreciate your time and consideration, if we can provide any further information on this event, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We are so excited to partner with you on our journey to make a paw-sitive impact on pets in need!

Sincerely,

Diana Barzano
