Thank you to the young men selling paper planes to help animals in Guernsey

Submitted by Steve on 22:44, 11th Apr, 2017 | 0

Last week two young lads came to visit the GSPCA.

The reason for the visit was that they had raised £16.40 to help the animals at the GSPCA.

The two young men had a ‘paper sale’ and sold paper planes, paper crackers, paper dogs and fortune tellers for the GSPCA.

They were selling them for 10p each which meant a lot of work to help raise the £16.40 in one afternoon.

A huge thank you to Toby (5) and Oliver (8) who came in with the donation and also to their friends Harry (9) and Jimmy (8) who all go to Vale Primary School.
