Thank you to everyone who purchased a cake or made a donation.  We are proud to announce that we made £101!

Dearest Oliver, Isabelle, Lily, Charlotte, Annabelle, Libby and your guide, Sharon!
I am so touched and thrilled by the animals you have saved with your loving donation. I would love to eat one of your cupcakes (or perhaps 6 of them)
thank you deeply for your ingenuity, your wonderful hard work, your spirit of giving, your love of animals! Your love and respect for animals is so beautiful, I feel better about the whole world knowing you kids are in it, and you are the leaders who will save so many animals in your lives. All animals want to live, none want to be chained or used as food or fashion, none want to be hunted or hurt in any way, and you are young but you already know all of that. You are beautiful and blessed, and I am honored to know you.
When you grow up I hope I will be able to welcome you into the gates of Animal Aid Unlimited and maybe I can introduce you to some of the animals you've just helped save.
with love and friendship to each of you,

Erika  (Animal Aid Unlimited Co-founder)

The Rock Solid Youth Group would like to raise money to help injured animals who live on the streets of India.  A wonderful charity, called Animal Aid Unlimited, help dogs, cows, donkeys and all sorts of other animals.  There are some amazing clips on YouTube of their work including this one of a donkey rescued from a tiny hole under a building.  Billy would be proud!

On Saturday 7th January Rock Solid will be making cup cakes which will be sold for 50p each and all the proceeds will go to this charity.  If anyone would like to buy a cake, please contact Rock Solid through Sharon at Cloverdale on 208740 .
