John,

I know your inbox has been full today, but I needed to reach out on behalf of the animals nationwide who are waiting on us to rescue them and give them the lifesaving care and second chances they need. For animals like these, all they’ve known is fear, hunger and sadness. And on GivingTuesday, the biggest giving day of the year, it’s critical that we show up for them today.

As an animal welfare advocate and a devoted pet parent like many of you, I am committed to giving more animals in need the second chances they deserve to have happy, safe lives in loving homes. And as a long-time ASPCA supporter, I’ve seen just how far your support can go. That’s why I hope we can count on you today. Together, we can help give countless dogs, cats and other animals their first holiday feeling safe, happy and loved.

So far, this GivingTuesday we have raised over $150,000 for vulnerable animals, thanks to compassionate people like you. The response has been incredible, but we’re not done yet! The generosity of this community has inspired us to set an extended GivingTuesday goal to raise over $250,000 to maximize our impact for animals in need and give them safety and care. We need your help in these final hours to reach our goal! So please make a lifesaving gift now.

I thank you for your generosity and commitment to helping those in need.
