BECOME A "HOST FAMILY" FOR ONE OF OUR GALS TODAY!
Even though our five Dietz & Watson Pretty In Pig beauties are, indeed, PIGS... they are getting a little "RAM-my" in their holding pens!
So, The Komen Philadelphia Affiliate and Dietz & Watson are looking for some caring friends to "ADOPT" a big pig for a few days so they can get out and see the town between now and Race day, May 9, 2010.
All of our Gals are:
-
Extremely friendly and low maintenance
-
Love attention... high-traffic areas are ideal!
-
A sure attention grabber for your office, business or fundraising event
-
Easy to feed -- just have friends, colleagues and passers-by fill her up with spare change for the cause!
But remember, our Gals are a little larger than normal—approximately 6-feet high and 3-feet around. Therefore, we're looking for open spaces with lots of foot traffic such as:
-
Busy cafeterias
-
Large corporate offices/corporate centers
-
Shopping areas
-
Sporting events (from the pros and minor leagues, to colleges and high schools)
-
Fairs, craft shows, seasonal festivals, etc.
-
Holiday parties, events of 250 people or more
-
Any breast cancer fund- and/or awareness-raising event
Prefer Piglets, Perhaps?
Inquire about our Pretty In Pig desk-top program. Ideal for offices, schools and countertops, they may be little, but these cute gals sure do pack in the fundraising—and life-saving—power!
Please, won't you help our Gals see what makes our community so special and loving by helping to raise important funds for empowering the Komen vision of a world without breast cancer? Whether you "adopt" for a day or a week, remember: every penny counts when it comes to saving lives!
