Raising money and awareness for “Paws To Help”.

To continue celebrating our 5th year doing what we love, we at Gusto Wine Tours have hatched a plan to raise money for our very good friend’s cause and YOU get the chance to win a fantastic prize!!
The Grand Prize is a fabulous Gusto Wine Tour for TWO people. The prize will be valid until the end of 2015.
The cause is to raise money for the various furry/feathered friends that Lisa May (AKA Santa Francesca) & her other half Gio (Dr Doolittle – He talks to the animals!) have rescued/found or they have found them! Lisa has just started a Facebook community page called Paws To Help to show what they have done over the years and continue to do! You can go to Paws To Help and donate a little via Paypal – every cent goes towards paying for the care of the animals – food, vet bills, shelter etc…. It’s a big commitment every day and even €5 makes such a difference!
So, here’s what we propose ….
Each raffle ticket is €5 (Five Euros) and you can buy as many as you like! Each €5 will be randomly assigned a number & (not randomly) your name.
There will be a list which I will update every time a ticket is sold. It will be on Gusto – Umbrian Wine Tours Facebook page. You will need to let me know you have paid and what name you would like next to the number (s). If you are on Facebook, please do this on the Gusto – Umbrian Wine Tours page to keep it all in one place!
We need at least 100 tickets sold by midday April 3rd 2015 . If that total isn’t reached – the money raised by that stage will go to Paws To Help without the prize draw. Once 100 or more numbers are sold, I will use a random number generator to pick a number out the hat! The winner will be notified on the Gusto – Umbrian Wine Tours Facebook page! Then the money will be presented to Lisa & Gio for Paws To Help.
The winner gets a day’s Gusto Wine Tour for TWO wine lovers, here in the gorgeous region of Umbria tasting the wonderful Montefalco wines! All you need to do is get yourselves to Umbria – unless you are already here of course! The winner can contact me, Giselle, for all the arrangements!
On your day with us – you will visit two small, family-run wineries before lunch. Then you will enjoy a full, memorable Umbrian lunch with wine (of course!) at a lovely agriturismo followed by a further visit to another out-the-way winery in the afternoon before being taken back to your pick-up point in the late afternoon. During the day you will tour at least one of the wineries including the barrel rooms, the cantina etc. Check us out on www.gustowinetours.com
To buy your ticket(s) for this amazing prize, all you need to do is send your €5 (or multiples of!) via Paypal making sure to use the Friends & Family option to reduce the PP fees. The email linked to the PayPal account is giselle.stafford@gmail.com
The more numbers we sell, the more money we can raise for Paws To Help!
As they say – You have to be in it to win it!! Go on, have a flutter, it may well be YOU!!
(Oh, and you can pass your prize onto another couple if you can’t make it – so it also makes a FANTASTIC gift!!)

Without Lisa intervening and fostering this little guy in the photo above, we would never have met out gorgeous boy DJ!! A perfect ‘brother’ to our other beautiful rescued dog, Stella!
