Dear Sir or Madam,

St. Sophia’s Forgotten Felines is a non-profit foster-based cat rescue in Westmont, IL. Established in late 2010, St. Sophia’s strives to be the best in temporary care for cats in transition. The cats we care for at St. Sophia’s come from many different places. The majority of the cats we help are those that are helpless, who have not experienced love or a home, stray, abused, and neglected cats. Primarily we work with high-volume/high-kill animal controls to save cats from needless euthanasia. Once a cat is in our care, St. Sophia evaluates each cat individually in order to determine what the best forever home would be. We use the ASPCA Felinality Behavioral Assessment Tool to learn about each cat’s needs and personalities. Our cats are raised in foster homes and get individualized attention to help them reach their full potential and get ready for their forever homes. Each cat is different in many ways, and St. Sophia’s prides itself on being able to determine what’s best for each cat on a one-on-one basis.

We are holding our Summer Pawty fundraiser August 25, 2018. At this event, we offer food and fun under the sun! Not only are our guests enjoying delicious bits and bites but we have fun Summer games set up for kids of all ages, raffle prizes, and even some crafting! Our event generates support from the community and helps us raise money to continue our efforts to help the homeless cats of Chicagoland. Fundraising is just one of the ways we raise money for our organization and with your help, we can reach our goal for this event. Would you consider donating to help us achieve our mission? We thank you in advance for your support! Your donation is greatly appreciated and will be used as a raffle prize to generate more interest in our event as well as interest in Medieval Times!

Sincerely,
Terri Hoshell
