Friend—just 3 days remain in the year and that means 3 days for us to allow us to unlock a matching gift from a generous donor. The good news is, a second donor has agreed to add $10,000 to the match.

That means if we can raise $35,000 between now and the end of the weekend, we can put $70,000 to work to close out the horse slaughter industry, to put new tools to work to eradicate dogfighting and cockfighting, and to defeat the EATS Act in Congress!

Just to underscore the point: If you can afford to give now, it will be matched. We are not yet close to hitting the $35,000 total, so I can assure you of the doubling of your money!

Will you dig deep to help us boost our campaign with a $70,000 infusion of funding by Dec. 31?

As we wrap up 2023, the Center for a Humane Economy is so grateful and proud of the work we accomplished together. We couldn’t have done it without you. Thanks to you, we’ve had major victories in 2023, including:

• SCOTUS upheld states’ rights to halt sales of animal products based on concerns about animal cruelty.
• Nike, New Balance, and Puma agreed to stop selling shoes sourced from massacred kangaroos.
• The first-ever horse-racing safety rules have been put in place at Thoroughbred racing tracks throughout the United States.
• The USDA created the first-ever animal welfare standards for egg, pork, and dairy producers—banning gestation crates for pigs and battery cages for hens—if they are raised under the “organic seal.”

Will you help support more vital wins for animals by making a MATCHED gift of $10 today?

But, as you know, John, we have so much more work to get done in the coming year. The Center for a Humane Economy has big plans to:

• Convince Adidas to join Nike, New Balance, and Puma in stopping the use of slaughtered kangaroos in soccer cleats.
• Pass the FIGHT Act to crack down on the horrid practice of animal fighting.
• Stop pork producers’ efforts to undo the will of voters by defeating the EATS Act.
• Close the horse slaughter pipeline for good with the passage of the SAFE Act.
• Dispose of the “milk mandate” in schools to ease the needless suffering of dairy cows with the ADD SOY Act.
• Bring FDA testing into the modern age and comply with the 2022 FDA Modernization Act 2.0.

We need your help now to reach our match before Dec. 31 and unlock $70,000 to save animals. Will you help?

For the animals,

Wayne Pacelle President Center for a Humane Economy
