Default Fundraising with stamp art?

Looking for any ideas or advice, please! =c)

I would like to do something useful with the things I make with my stamps and I've read about how people make cards and stuff and donate them to nursing homes and to the soldiers.

My query is that I would like to know of any ideas of things I could do to raise money for pets?

I would really like to donate money to my local animal shelters and cat rescue groups here in Gainesville, but I don't really have enough money to really make significant donations all the time.

I'm thinking of coming up with some stuff to make (card sets or bookmarks or something) and sell to raise money for these kinds of charities. Animals! =c) Any ideas or suggestions? Do you think Ebay would work for something like this?

Thanks in advance!

Felicia

I supply two swim teams with about 1500 cards each in the fall. I get $1.00 per card and they sell them for about $4.00. I make a lot of $$ this way doing what I love. Initially I just donated the cards for them but it does take my time and my materials so this year I am getting $1.00 per card. I know that doesnt sound like much but It is over $3,000. The schools are always looking for fundraisers. It is what I love to do. I also donate thousands of cards to the soldiers. Blessings.
