Send A Friend A Goat Day April 21-25th, 2008 FUNDRAISER

Ok, I'm not kidding. This is FANTASTIC. Here's the deal: You can send a friend a LIVE GOAT to their home, Coeur d Alene Real Estate business, school etc.

Organization Name: Wishing Star Foundation
Event Name: Send a Friend a Goat
Event Location: Spokane
Event Details: April 21-25, 2008 Hilarious! - Show someone you appreciate or adore them by sending a very special gift. Have a "real live goat" hand delivered to your friend's office, school, daycare, meeting, etc. Volunteers will bring some much needed humor for the goated's workplace, instructions on how to take care of the new pet, plus some friendly humor for our "friendly goat".
While the JOKE is on the Goated, it is time to help the "kids" of Wishing Star. The goated (with the help of friends) will be encouraged to collect donations to remove the goat from the premises. Note: While we are there, the Goated is free to pet the goat!
Cost to Send a Friend a Goat $75.00 Contact Wishing Star Foundation for more information at (509) 744-3411.

Who do you know that could raise a LOT of money & wouldn't mind being GOATED?

Sue and Terry, this is fabulous! What a fabulous way to raise funds for a good cause and have a great time doing it. I can just see my broker's face right now with Little Billy walking into our office! Also, why don't you post this on the "Blog For A Cause" group!

I thought somebody was playing a joke on me when I saw this in the B4C Group. Some of my friends in the Rain can be quite the pranksters at times!

What a great cause! I can just imagine the looks on peoples faces when the Goat shows up! Thanks for posting here and all the best for your cause!

Pat, thanks for plugging the group!

That is classic. My broker is getting sent to Jail next week & can leave until he has raised $3,500. Lots of great ideas out there to help raise funds & awareness!

Not to sound crude or anything, but does the goat come with a diaper? My wife has 4 little pygmy goats on acreage we own in Eagle. They are very cute, but they are also very smelly. If I were a broker, I wouldn't want goat pee on my office floor!

Must be a city thing, it not something that would work in any farm area.

Michael: That is great. It's always best to do these kinds of things to people who can raise the most money or who dislike animals the most to make sure they raise the money quickly so the animal can be removed! <wink>

David: Not sure about the diaper, but that should motivate people to raise the money PRONTO!!

Mary: I'm thinking whether it is City or country, a Goat in the office should motivate people to do what they need to do to get the Goat out of their place of business. It's all for a good cause.

Hi Sue & Terry, Good point there, now I can relate to getting the goat gone. They are cute, but I prefer them in the barn.

Mary: :) And... cute picture you sent too!
