At MyGivingCircle we have over 2,000 charities collecting donations on our platform. Our system continually tests and optimises our donation page to find the best converting elements to maximise donations for our participating charities. One element we optimise is the default (suggested) donation amount we recommend, and the minimum donation we allow. People are free to change the default amount but it provides an 'anchor' for a recommended amount. Analysing over 3,000 recent donations we can see the best performing 'ask' is $30 default (suggested) amount and a minimum donation amount of $1. Interestingly almost no-one chooses $1, but obviously people like the flexibility of being able to choose any amount. If you have a different experience with the best performing recommended and minimum donation amounts I'd love to hear from you. If you want to register your charity for free with MyGivingCircle and benefit from the donation optimisation we perform for charities around the world, we'd love you to register for free at https://lnkd.in/g9PAQtCE

If you want to give a gift that’s Easter-bunny themed but won’t put animals at risk of harm, consider: Donating to a small animal charity! There are many groups working to protect and re-home small domestic animals like rabbits. A donation to one in someone’s honour can be a beautiful gift that keeps giving. Volunteering! Between humane societies, wildlife rehabilitators, and small-animal rescues, there’s no shortage of places needing help. Give some of your time with a loved one to help animals directly this way. Chocolates or candies! A gift of rabbit-shaped or themed (and plant-based) chocolate or candy is another fun way to enjoy the season and provide joy without putting animals at risk. If you are STILL interested in adding a rabbit to your family, please look up a local rescue who can ensure you have the best possible information to give your new family member a great and long-lasting life!

2 months ago, our mission took on a new dimension – supporting animal welfare. We partnered with Animalibre, an organization dedicated to rescuing and caring for animals in need. The stories of countless dogs, cats, and other creatures suffering on the streets moved us. Witnessing the transformation of these animals – overcoming fear and regaining health – is inspiring. We couldn't walk away from the opportunity to make a difference. Virtue Health helps Animalibre with donations and raising awareness for their work. However, our furry friends still face challenges. Animalibre currently cares for 100 animals, and they desperately need a larger space to thrive. How You Can Help:  - Donate: Your contribution helps provide vital resources for them.  - Adopt: Open your home to a deserving companion.  - Share: Spread the word. Every action counts. Let's work together to create a brighter future for these animals. 📌 Donate here: https://gofund.me/1129584d #animalrescue #animalrights #donate

As wedding and graduation season approaches, we know that dove releases are planned for many events. Would we release a bunch of domestic cats far from home for entertainment and see if they make it home? We're unsure why it's ok to do that for pigeons and doves, when we wouldn't do it for any other domestic animal. The truth is - ceremonial dove releases are cruel. Happiness for these birds is having shelter, protection from predators, food, their flock. We take that away from them when they are released for show. Don't support dove/pigeon releases. We don't do it for dogs, cats, pigs, cattle, etc, so why would we do it for any other domestic animal? Oakrock.org #nonprofit #charity #animalrescue #farmanimals

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!
