I've bought one of those outdoor storage containers and installed it at the front of the property, just besides the front gates for those of you who want to drop off donations at any time! It's marked "NARC Donation Drop Off" and we check it a few times daily so feel free to leave your donations in them! We get a lot of calls from people wanting to come during the week so now you can! Although there may not be a volunteer on site as we work mostly evenings and weekends to serve our customers, we are always looking for new ways to service you as best we can and of course it helps out our doggies in the process. The container is quite large, would say 4 ft wide by 2ft deep and 3ft high so it will fit larger items. You can leave dog food, treats, doggy items (beds, blankets, toys...), crates, garage sale items for those wanting to get rid of some small household items, we do take them for our annual garage sales yearly - it certainly helps us in raising funds!
Thank you to those that have already left your blankets, towels, etc...in our new container, we're glad it's working out for you and not only have we received your items, they are great and will be much used! Also a big thanks to those that have left items at our Vet's for NARC before we had the container, we've picked them up and the doggies are enjoying their new blankets, beds and toys!

Is the donation drop-off box a secure place to drop off donations? Such as, once an item is dropped inside, is it impossible for someone else coming along to remove it?
ReplyDeleteWhat sort of donations go into the donation box? Is it just toys, blankets, beds, etc., or is stuff like dog food and that sort acceptable?
How big is the box? Would bringing something like a doggie bed made for a large dog be a bad idea, or will it fit just fine?
You could incorporate these answers into this, or another, post. I think it'd be quite helpful to specify. :]
