John, today we’re celebrating ASPCA Giving Day on our 158th birthday! For over a century, the ASPCA and our community of animal lovers and supporters have led the way in fighting cruelty, rescuing and finding homes for animals in need, and driving significant legislative change that protects their lives and welfare—ultimately transforming how we value and care for animals. Our history of providing better futures for animals was only possible because of friends like YOU!

But our work is far from finished and animals nationwide are still waiting for rescue, relief and care. That’s why it’s critical that we hear from you, our compassionate community, on a day like today.

We hope you’ll step up and help us reach our goal of 15,000 lifesaving donations for our inaugural Giving Day! Will you become part of our movement with your first gift to ASPCA today?

Our lifesaving work starts with animal lovers like you who stand by us to help give countless neglected, abused or homeless animals the futures they deserve. In my role at the ASPCA Cruelty Recovery Center, I’ve seen firsthand just how far gifts from our members and supporters go. Animals who are shut down come out of their shells; those who have been abandoned find new hope and families; dogfighting victims get to know what it feels like to play in a yard and become a beloved pet. It’s an indescribable feeling to see transformations like these, and it’s all because of friends like you.

By making a special gift on ASPCA Giving Day, you can help rescue, protect and care for animals today, tomorrow and for many generations to come. Their future starts with you today.

Please help us reach our goal by making your Giving Day gift now!

On behalf of all the animals we serve, I thank you for your generosity and compassion. 

Best Regards,

Amanda Kruczynski Senior Director, Operations Cruelty Recovery Center

P.S. As an added bonus, when you make a gift of $60 or more, you’ll get our exclusive Giving Day T-shirt as a thank you.
