Recuiting new foster homes - idea
I'm really suprised by the great response to a newspaper article run
last week in local papers about fostering for rescue groups. Every group that was mentioned in the article has gotten new volunteers, including potential foster homes. It was the simplest thing in the world to arrange; I simply called the newpaper features desk and suggested the story. We got top of the fold front page and the back page of the section, with 4 large photos. It was minimal effort/maximum reward. http://www.bayarea.com/mld/cctimes/n...ds/6791713.htm Lynn K.

I hope they stay (the volunteers). I used to run a monthly ad in the paper here and would always get between 1-5 emails from interested parties. Some even submitted volunteer applications. The problem was that out of a year's worth of ads, apps & emails, only 2 volunteers actually stuck. The others offered help but never gave it when asked. -- Tara
