Dear John,

Tomorrow, on World Farm Animals Day, Farm Sanctuary is celebrating our annual Giving Day—and we’re hoping to reach our goal of raising enough money to provide 200,000 meals for our shelter residents.

But you don’t have to wait to make your gift. In fact, here is a great reason to join Farm Sanctuary today:

A good friend of Farm Sanctuary has provided a generous matching gift opportunity for early birds like you. Today only, they will match all gifts, dollar-for-dollar, up to $25,000!

Will you help Farm Sanctuary secure the funds we need to make sure our approximately 1,000 rescued farm animals never miss a meal? Please don’t miss this special opportunity to have your Giving Day donation DOUBLED.

Since we launched our Giving Day campaign two weeks ago, I have been so inspired by the outpouring of generosity from friends like you. Now, with this matching gift opportunity, we can make even more headway today and give ourselves the best possible chance to meet our goal when Giving Day starts tomorrow.

Can we count on your help, John? Please join Farm Sanctuary and make tomorrow’s Giving Day gift today so it can be matched and go twice as far.

Your Giving Day gift, and corresponding matching funds, will help Farm Sanctuary provide lifelong care to all the animals who call our shelters home. Many of our animal residents were underfed and malnourished before they came into our care. But your support will ensure that they never again have to experience the pain and fear of hunger.

You will also help Farm Sanctuary save more sick, injured, and abandoned farm animals, knowing that we have the resources we need to fill their bellies, heal their wounds, and help them become the happy, free creatures they were born to be.

And, you will help us advocate for an end to the worst practices of America’s farming industries—such as extreme confinement and cruelty at the slaughterhouse—and help more people see farm animals as special, unique individuals who deserve to be treated with dignity and care.

Everything Farm Sanctuary does to care for the rescued animals at our shelters, and to protect and improve the lives of farm animals across the country, is made possible by your love and support.

That’s why I hope you will take advantage of this special opportunity to join Farm Sanctuary and provide DOUBLE the meals for our animal residents by making your Giving Day donation TODAY!

Thank you for helping us reach our goal and continue all of our lifesaving work for farm animals.

P.S. It’s not too late to invite your friends and family members to join you in celebrating World Farm Animals Day with a compassionate, plant-based meal. Even small steps like this can add up to big changes for farm animals everywhere.
