ACT! Animal
Care Thassos is the name of the new charity for animals on Thassos.
In order to
register the charity officially we went to a lawyer to find out what was
needed. We were shocked to hear that the lawyer and paperwork together would
cost € 1,300! We couldn't pay such a large amount ourselves, so we asked family
and friends on the island and abroad to help us.
Within 2
weeks the news has spread around and we have received the necessary amount of
money, something we didn't expect to happen so soon. We are very grateful for
that!
In the
meantime we have been in contact with another lawyer, this time in Kavala, who
offered us a much better price. This means that we will have some money left to
use immediately for the animals instead of for paperwork. We are thinking of
setting up a sterilization program. But of course we will keep you informed
about that through this News page!
It also
came clear that from starting the procedure it will take at least 3 months
before the charity would be official and registered.
Of course
we didn't want to wait that long before people could hear about us, so we
decided to publish our website straight away.
So please
share our website amongst your friends, on Facebook, Twitter or wherever. And
if you think you can help us, don't hesitate to contact us!
