Looking for a free and easy way to receive the supplies you need — without having to ask for money? Creating a wish list of items you use regularly (like food, litter, medicine, or bedding) is a great way to let your supporters help you in a very practical way. 

Why It works: 

• Some supporters feel more comfortable donating items instead of money. 

• People like knowing exactly how their donation is helping. 

• It gives you a reason to post on social media regularly (“We’ve just added kitten milk to our wishlist!”). 

How to set it up: 

Step 1: Choose a platform 

Pick a site your supporters already use, such as: 

• Skroutz.gr (works well in Greece and often has free shipping) 

• Zooplus.gr (great for pet-specific items) 

• Amazon.de or Amazon.co.uk (if your supporters are international) 

Step 2: Add your most-needed items 

Think: 

• Wet and dry food 

• Flea and worm treatments 

• Bowls, blankets, litter 

• Pet carriers, cleaning supplies, even printer ink! 

Try to include a mix of lower-cost and essential items. 

Step 3: Make it easy to find 

• Add the link to your social media bios and your website 

• Post it regularly (once a week or during special appeals) 

• Include it in your WhatsApp groups and Facebook posts 

One group in Northern Greece shared a wishlist for kitten milk and within 3 days, 12 boxes had arrived from supporters across the country — all because of one Facebook post. 

So, what are you waiting for, set up your list today!
