“I think dogs are the most amazing creatures. The give unconditional love. For me they are the role model for being alive.” – Gilda Radner

As the person who was responsible for getting donations for silent auctions and gift basket items, I know how hard that can be. I wrote my book so that I could create awareness about the benefit of adopting rescued dogs and to donate funds to our rescue. Sadly, thanks to COVID and inflation, the rescue I helped for five years has closed its doors.

Just because our rescue has closed doesn’t mean their aren’t dogs who need our help. I am happy to donate to dog rescues, shelters, and foster groups with their fundraising efforts in two ways.

If you would like a book to be included in a gift basket you can email me at carmenlealwrites@gmail.com with your request at least three weeks before your event. These books come directly from Amazon.com and will not be signed. I am happy to send up to three books per event. Please include the following:
