To the editor:

Every year the Cape Coral Friends of Wildlife promotes our fund raising with some extraordinary Christmas gifts for all ages. One is our Adopt an Owl fund raiser. With your donations you can get a wonderful picture of burrowing owl on an adopt-an-owl glossy certificate. Other perks are earrings, magnets and our popular T-shirts depending on the level you choose. We just got in our young children’s T-shirts and you had better hurry as they go fast. Please go to CCFRIENDSOFWILDLIFE.org and click on the an Adopt an Owl link for all the details and ordering information. People from all over our great country have been deighted with this gift.

Another popular gift at Thanksgiving or Christmas is chocolate from Noela Chocolates on 1307 S.E. 47th Terrace. Every year this premiere 5-star chocolate shop donates $5 for every designated container of chocolates sold. We get the stipend for the Cape Coral Friends of Wildlife which helps us preserve and protect our wildlife. The donation occurs when you purchase a box of chocolates from this fine merchant. The shop is open 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Just mention CC Friends of Wildlife donation when ordering their outstanding sweets.The store is located just East of Merrick Seafood Company. Even the way the package is wrapped looks so delightful. Noela also donates to our silent auction coming up after the new year.

Lastly, another way to donate is this Sunday, Nov. 19 from noon til 6 p.m. at Forever Tattoos. Their tattoo parlor comes well recommended. Located at 1505 S.W. 47th Terrace they will have many ways to donate at their store. All tattoos fees that day will be given to the Cape Coral Friends Wildlife. But wait, there are more contributions, too. Get a haircut and we get the payment for the trim. Two food trucks will be there. We get a percentage of their take. Come out and have a Sunday dinner, get a tattoo or haircut and thus give a gift for our Cape wildlife.

CCFW will have our merchandise displayed to buy. See our outstanding collection including the youngsters T-shirts. Hope to see you there. Happy Holidays!
