Update on Administration of Special Appeals

The Special Appeals page is to help caregivers gain more support for the care of community cats.

As many donors have asked for better accountability, from 1 Sep 2010, all donations for Special Appeals will be channelled through CWS and disbursed to cargivers accordingly to ensure veracity of appeals and transparency of donations of funds. All postings requesting for financial aid will need to be accompanied by receipts for vet treatment, pet supplies and/or other services incurred. These receipts will be posted on the appeals page.

All donations will be channeled to CWS' bank account. CWS will liaise directly with the recipient or clinic on the amount to be disbursed, and will then send out a cheque for the corresponding amount accordingly.

If you are posting an appeal, pls note
All required information would need to be provided before your appeal will be posted. Multiple postings of the same appeal will not be accepted as there are other cases equally as deserving of publicity. CWS reserves the discretion to
(1) assess each appeal case in terms of urgency and need, and
(2) refuse any appeal posting that is incomplete, vague or unverifiable.

Disbursements will be made twice a month (on every 1st and 20th of the month).

As the results of appeals depend entirely on the response from donors, please note that it is important to take our own means for caring for the cat/cats into consideration even as we appeal for assistance.

If you are a donor, pls note
All donations to the appeals are to be channeled to CWS' bank account via Internet Bank Transfer or ATM Transfer
