Donated furniture to local united way and money to local habitat for humanity.

Also planning to gather boxes of unused toiletries from countless hotel stays and donate to local homeless shelter. Up to 40% of funds are used for supplies as they cannot be reused. This will allow shelters to repurpose funds for other needs.

Sponsored a spay op and shots for a rescue kitty at a rural KY shelter. They pretty much rely on donations from outside their local area to provide this valuable service.

Thanks Guy!

Donated to the local county animal shelter -- and almost came out with another dog (we are moving in 2 months so ultimately decided we didn't want to put the dog through that).

Pay it Forward

Husband and I have booked a cruise out of Sydney for Feb 6th, 2018.

I am a volunteer and board member at Naples Lakeroad Ferret Farm and Rescue shelter a non for profit 501 c organization www.ferretfarm.org

Husband and I do many chores at the shelter and we sponsor one to two ferrets on a monthly basis ( $35 donation) and have done so for almost 8 years now.

Hope this counts for the visa application. thank you for your generosity.

Guy Betsy is the best. He helped me out last in 2014.

I donated to the BCSPCA (British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), BC Cancer Foundation, and Thrangu Monastery in Richmond, Canada.

Thank you!

Made another donation to the Canadian Peregrine Foundation as they have to relocate after being in the same location for 25+ years.

Happy to have made a donation to NKLA -- No Kill Los Angeles. In fact, Los Angeles is well on its way to becoming the first major city in the US with a 100 percent no kill rate in large measure because of the good public outreach they do.

If you can swing 4 ETAs before your planned unavailability, wonderful. If not, I totally understand.

Have paid 50 AED into the Bangladesh restaurant collection box for the local mosque in Ras Al Khaimah. Today I placed a 50 QAR donation into the Red Crescent collection box at my employer's cafeteria here in Doha.

Edit: Thanks GB/Wayne for getting the ETA for me. In Northern Queensland I will stuff some cash into the RFD (Royal Flying Doctor Service) collection box as I travel in the Cape York area in July-August....

Never know when dramas can happen in Australia and you need a "medivac".

This is an incredible thing that you do Guy Betsy!

In addition to the continuous donation we have been making to the ACLU, will be making a donation to the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

Neat idea! Thanks Guy Besty!

I gave financial support to INsideout, a group that rescues girls from human trafficking and gives them training and jobs in salons and other trades to help get them out and on their feet.
