AT HOMO FABERThe project Hello: Welcome to Lublin is drawing to a close and will end with the end of this year, which means that there will no longer be funds to organise the activities we've been doing for you so far.
We are also leaving our headquarters at Krakowskie Przedmieście 39 and are currently looking for a new place to move the office to. There a a few pieces of furniture we are giving away for free; you can see the photographs here. If you're interested, please contact Anna Dąbrowska at ad@hf.org.pl.

HELP FEED HOMELESS DOGS
If you'd like to help feed dogs from animal shelters but cannot afford to donate food or money, you can still help. Go to http://tablica.pl/nakarm-psa/ . You will find the follwing information in Polish, which I'm translating here into English:
Jak karmimy? (How do we feed?)
1. Wybierz psa, którego chcesz nakarmić. (Choose the dog you'd like to feed).
2. Kliknij na przycisk w ogłoszeniu. Pamiętaj: możesz kliknąć tylko raz dziennie. (Click on the button next to the advert. Remember: you can only click once a day)
3. Po napełnieniu kości Tablica wyśle do psa duży worek karmy! (After the cartoon bone has been filled, Tablica will send the dog a big bag of food).
It really is this simple. The sponsor, Tablica, is a classified ads service and is keen for as many people as possible to visit their website.---------------------------------------------------------------
