Bad Pet Drawing Fundraiser
Starting on Wednesday, March 16, 2022, for a $20 donation, Great Plains SPCA will provide a custom drawing of your pet. The catch? Their team is way better at caring for animals than drawing them. You might get a drawing by one of their more artistically inclined team members…and you might not. Whether your drawing ends up being a masterpiece or a truly bad drawing, it is going to be a blast!
GPSPCA’s Chief Executive Officer, Tam Singer said, “This fundraiser is back for its third year. We look forward to bringing people joy with custom drawings of their pets while raising money for the shelter.”
Supporters interested in receiving a custom drawing of their pet can make their donation via this link and comment the photo of their pet on the Bad Pet Drawing Post on the organization’s Facebook page.
GPSPCA’s volunteer artists will be busy creating masterpieces as the demand comes in.
