I don't know how to secure permission for that possibility but I am pretty sure it can be done. Next to the convenience store near the Silver Lake post office some group has containers where residents can drop their newspapers; and someone from the group comes and collects the newspapers periodically.
Another thought is to have the boys clip/collect the pet food/treat coupons from newspapers and magazines and give them to the shelters. I have no pets but I clip the coupons and our SPCA leaves them on their counter for people to take for their pets or to purchase items to bring back to the shelter.
Will get back to you if I can come up with something more clever than Pause for Paws or Cause for Paws - but I am liking them the more I speak out loud!  |
Thanks so much will be reading this and all the others to the boys this weekend, keep all posted on what the name the boys pick out with all the suggestions they have, and will post their first drive within 30 days....thanks so much, really want the boys to learn early about giving instead of getting
