🐾 Introducing the “35 for 35 Impact Club” 🐾

​Celebrating 35 Years of Rescue, Love & Second Chances

Giving Tuesday – December 2nd, 2025

This year marks 35 incredible years of rescue, care, and compassion at The Animal Orphanage. To celebrate, we’re launching a special Giving Tuesday campaign — a global day of generosity dedicated to giving back and making a difference in your community.

On Tuesday, December 2nd, we invite local businesses and individuals to join our 35 for 35 Impact Club, a Giving Tuesday initiative to raise $10,000 to support lifesaving medical care, shelter operations, and adoption programs for animals in need.

We’re seeking 35 community heroes — individuals and businesses — to stand with us and help continue our mission of saving lives.

Individual Recurring Donors

​Become one of our 35 heroes and help animals in need thrive, not just today, but all year long. Your support as an individual donor ensures that animals receive consistent care, medical treatment, and the love they deserve.

By joining the 35 for 35 Impact Club as a recurring monthly donor, you help provide:

  • Emergency and routine medical care to keep animals healthy and safe

  • Nutritious food, safe shelter, and enrichment to ensure their physical and emotional well-being

  • Adoption support to help pets find loving, permanent homes

 

Monthly donations allow us to plan ahead, respond quickly to urgent needs, and make a lasting impact in the lives of the animals who rely on us every day.

Impact Club Benefits for Individual Donors

As a member of the 35 for 35 Impact Club, you’ll receive:

  • A personalized welcome email acknowledging your commitment to animals in need

  • Recognition on our social media as part of our “35 for 35” spotlight series

  • Exclusive behind-the-scenes updates showing the animals your support is helping

  • The satisfaction of making a lasting difference every month, knowing your contribution provides ongoing care and hope

 

Your recurring gift ensures that we can continue rescuing, healing, and finding homes for animals, while giving you the opportunity to see the impact of your generosity throughout the year.

 

Every monthly donation brings us closer to our $10,000 Giving Tuesday goal, and helps us continue a legacy of compassion that has saved thousands of lives over the past 35 years.
