I also have given money to Saga and received no acknowledgement. I don't distrust anyone involved but I agree with Jeff that some visible accountability would be nice. If support is needed with the mechanics of the process I may be able to help (I am a chartered accountant).

Distemper is such an ugly thing - and so very contagious!

Peter, you continue to sing this song, even though you refuse to learn the tune. This topic, and your questions in particular, have been addressed ad nauseam.

Thought Pam of Pam & Dave (and Stanford Law School fame) was going to take over the task of distributing thank you notes . . . (see link below)

Biting sarcasm gives me goose bumps

Capt Jeff-if you look at the above link you will see a thank you from Simon

I donated and received a very gracious letter of appreciation in a timely matter.

Yes a thank you on the board , in december was made , by simon as he is very gracious ..the point being is , since then more money was sent and I still never ever got a e mail or official letter from saga,saying thanks.Simon is a great guy this is not about simon.pedro 2 makes the same point.wish I had the time to help to do fund raising ...

No Peter, you are not going to get slammed for this. It is a piece of information that I find very useful.

As far as posting accounts, I don't know how many times that this has been said (and I'm sure it will need to be said again.) The accounts of Saga are public and may be viewed by anyone by simply calling and making an appointment. Every time Peter has made comments about the accounts he has been invited to view them but has yet to do so. You can read into that what you may.

For those of you who have not received follow up thanks, I personally apologize on behalf of the board. I am no longer involved in that process but I will follow up, as I have been, to try and make sure that the procedures that are in place are followed. Please contact me directly if you find yourself in this situation.

Work was started on improving the shelter but we ran into a major setback. Anyone who drives past can see how bad the condition of the soil is in that area. I arranged to have a backhoe come in (thanks to Kevin Gonzales) to have the area improved and prepared for the installation of a concrete pad. But the rains came and we now have to clear all of the sludge off, haul it away and then refill. We are waiting for a quote on the work as we need to watch our dollars and make sure that the money that has been raised for the shelter is used effectively.

There is a board meeting today and I will make it a point to have the voices of the message board and contributors heard.

I also received a thank you letter from Saga for the donations we brought down in May. I felt sorry for all the little puppies in their cages, and wish that I could have adopted one, and brought it home with me. My puppy at home would not have appreciated it so much, however!

There you go , this sounds good to me.please keep up the good work .

I just reported what the vet told me-she said she had no idea what was in the accounts.
