Wednesday March 6th is the 1st day of Lent. Lent lasts for 40 days and during Lent many people give up luxuries. We are asking you to create a Lent bag for KAR. You can choose a Goody Lent Bag or a Donation Lent Bag or a mix of both. Every day of Lent we would like you to give up one item and put it into your KAR Lent bag.
Items, for example, in the Donation bag could be an unwanted piece of clothing, shoes, household item such as ornaments etc.
Ideas for the Goody Bag are a bag of dried pasta, rice, mutlivitamins, dog/cat treats, worming tablets etc.
At the end of Lent (finishes April 18th) please bring your KAR Lent bags to the KAR office in Karakum.
We know it is some way off yet but you could start looking out for items now ready to go into your KAR Lent Bag
Lets all Lent a hand to help the animals in KARs care.

That's all very well, but in my case it will probably be 40 bars of chocolate, not very healthy or wholesome!!

Sophie - think you have missed the point ! But saying that you could always give up your chocolate and donate it to the KAR volunteers and workers - i am sure they would enjoy it !

Point being that my Lent Goody Bag would be full of Goodies i.e. bar of chocolate for 40 days and nights so that's no point and not healthy for the dogs so it will have to be a Lent Donation bag instead. I might just put a certain regular amount of money per day in a nice fashion bag which in turn can be sold at the end of Lent.
