Hats off to The Showcase of Fundraising Innovation & Inspiration (SOFII) and Battersea for this clever, uplifting and #mission focused TV ad for leaving a #gift in your will. Since the ad started running in 2020, they've received over 1,000 requests for legacy info and legacy income is over $18 million in the past 8 eight. Here are 4 key takeaways: (1) The ad is focused on LIFE, not dying or end of life. (2) Rescue animals are portrayed as loving sassy companions, not victims. (3) Research found Battersea #donors aligned themselves to rescue animals, as underdogs and survivors looking for a place to belong. (4) The music is toe-tapping, irresistibly fun and upbeat. https://lnkd.in/e-GqsXww #legacygiving #nonprofis #philanthropy #fundraising

Charities always appreciate when Will-makers leave a gift in their Will to them. However, the only way a charity can receive anything from a Will-maker’s Estate is if they clearly identify/name the charity in their Will. If the deceased dies without a Will, under the rules of intestacy, a charity cannot receive a cent from the deceased’s Estate. In simple terms, no Will, no gift to charity from your Estate. https://lnkd.in/gFxmWCk3

To accomplish his mission, Cristian plans to film in all 50 states for a minimum of 45 days to create a one-hour film for each state. We are hoping to secure ongoing sponsorship for the 50-state project.
Filming cats & dogs seeking help to get off the streets is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it raises awareness about the plight of stray cats, highlighting their need for assistance and safe shelter. Secondly, these videos can attract the attention of animal rescue organizations and potential adopters, increasing the chances of these pets finding permanent homes. Additionally, sharing such footage on social media can generate community support and resources for rescue efforts, creating a network of compassionate individuals ready to help. Ultimately, documenting these cats & dogs struggles can drive meaningful action, ensuring they receive the care and protection they deserve. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation. I Film Heroes is exempt under Section 501(c) (3) of the IRS (EIN: #82-4657154).

National Mixed Breed Day encourages us to celebrate, embrace and save mixed breed dogs. We love them so much we recognize this holiday twice a year-on July 31 and December 2. Desperately longing for a new home, millions of loving and healthy mixed breed dogs in shelters wait for someone to come and adopt them. Approximately 3.3 million dogs enter shelters every year, according to the ASPCA. Each one needs a home. Despite the name, a mixed breed learns, obeys and trains much like purebred animals and are some of our favorite and most faithful dogs. How to Celebrate National Mixed Breed Dog Day 1.Visit a local shelter to adopt. 2.Volunteer at your favorite local animal organization. 3.Schedule an appointment to have your dog spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. 4.Make a donation to Tails of Hope in honor or memory of your mixed breed dog supporting all our lifesaving programs and making an impact for many dogs who desperately need our help. 5.Spend extra time with your dog - take pics or video of your special day together and post using #nationalmixedbreeddogday #FromOurPawsToYours ‘Tis the Season! It’s Giving Season and Tails of Hope’s annual year end fund drive is happening now! A tax-deductible donation in the name of a furkid makes a great gift for the animal lover on your list!

Ivana Miseva, part of the rescue team at Pawpers in the Ruff in Macedonia, recently shared a video that gives us a glimpse into their world. It's a world where they conduct many of their rescues - the notorious dump. As you watch the video, try to imagine the heart-wrenching scenes they encounter daily: dozens of dogs, some starving, others in dire conditions, and many who've never known the touch of a caring hand. The Pawpers in the Ruff team face difficult decisions daily, all while striving to care for as many dogs as possible with limited resources. Their passion for these animals fuels their determination to save lives, even while juggling permanent jobs and family responsibilities. With over 150 dogs in their care, rescued from dire conditions, their dedication knows no bounds. Their selfless dedication often comes with significant challenges and sacrifices. We must ensure that incredible women like Ivana receive the acknowledgment, respect, and resources they need to continue their life-saving work. Their dedication often comes with significant challenges and sacrifices, and it's our responsibility to support them. We invite you to spare just two minutes of your time to listen to Ivana's powerful message in the video she shared. If you can donate: https://shor.by/PqEg Every penny raised will go directly to Pawpers in the Ruff to support their rescue efforts. #PowerOfOne #AdoptDontShop #AnimalRescue #AnimalWelfare #StreetDogs #Dogrescue #PawpersInTheRuff #RescueHeroes #SupportDogRescue #DonateToday #AnimalRights #MentalHealthMatters

As winter wraps its chilly arms around us, it’s the stray souls without a shelter that weigh heavily on my heart. ❄️🐾 Animals, our silent companions on this Earth, often bear the brunt of the season’s harshness without a voice to ask for help. Empathy towards these creatures is more than a feeling; it's a call to action. Seeing an animal braving the cold without refuge is a stark reminder of their vulnerability and our responsibility. It stirs a profound desire in me to extend a hand of warmth and safety to these beings who ask for so little yet give so much. I advocate for adoption, not just as a means to find a pet, but as a life-saving gesture for the many animals who call the streets their home. Each adoption is a life transformed. Imagine the countless tails that could wag in the warmth of a loving home, the purrs that could fill rooms instead of empty alleyways. So, let’s not just walk by. Let’s stop, let’s care, and let’s act. Whether it’s setting up a feeding station, providing a makeshift shelter, or opening our homes, every small act of kindness resonates with the spirit of the season. I encourage you to join me. Let’s make this winter a little less cold for our furry friends. Adopt, foster, donate, volunteer - whatever you can do to help. Because when it comes to compassion, every action counts. 🐶😺❤️ #AdoptDontShop #AnimalCompassion #WinterCare
