Did you know pet owners have a higher than average propensity to leave charitable bequests in their wills? This generosity, combined with the way responsible pet owners tend to use estate plans to care for their pets when they pass away, means that animal organizations are uniquely positioned to help their supporters while securing legacy gifts.

These are very tough times for all non-profit organizations, especially in animal welfare. The needs grow, while the donations shrink. Somehow we have to remind people that the money spent on a fancy latte (even in pumpkin spice season) can be better used to save a life. Some organizations and companies use shock and gore. Others use extreme guilt. And we can't argue that those methods tend to work at least once on anyone. But overused they turn even our greatest advocates away. Compassion fatigue is very real. We believe there is a better way... A way to inspire, motivate, and celebrate the actions of those who do step up, speak out, and lend a hand. And we are asking you to be a part of the positivity movement that has started to sweep the nation. It is so easy to point fingers, be angry, and assign blame. It may be harder to take a higher road, but we will all be healthier, happier, and more successful long term by doing so. So take this moment to think about the volunteers, the advocates, the animal welfare teams, the fosters, the adopters, and the donors. And imagine what we could do by inspiring more people to be a part of this amazing journey we are on... together. We're Sponsor a Pet. We're the happy fundraising platform. Who else is ready for some optimism and hope? https://lnkd.in/g99HpbR6 #hope #optimism #teamwork #lifesaving #volunteerism #advocacy #spirit #togetherwecan #saveonemore

Happy #ChangeAPetsLifeDay! Today is all about celebrating the incredible bond between humans and animals, and recognizing the power we have to make a difference in the lives of furry (or feathered or scaled!) friends. Millions of animals are waiting for their forever homes in shelters and rescues nationwide. Adopting a pet isn't just about giving them a loving home; it's about gaining a devoted companion, furry therapist, and endless source of joy. There are countless ways to positively impact an animal's life. Here are a few ideas: Adopt: Give an animal a second chance at happiness. Visit your local shelter or rescue organization and find the perfect match for your family. Foster: Provide temporary care for an animal in need, giving them love and socialization while they wait for their forever home. Volunteer: Lend a helping hand at your local shelter or rescue. Walk dogs, socialize cats, play with rabbits, or help with administrative tasks. Donate: Every little bit helps! Donate food, toys, bedding, or financial support to help shelters and rescues provide care for their animals. Spread the word: Raise pet adoption and rescue awareness by sharing our post or talking to your friends and family. No matter how you choose to participate, know that you're making a difference in an animal's life. And remember, adopting a pet doesn't just change their life; it changes yours too! Together, we can make a world where every pet has a loving home. ❤️
