Today you can donate 1/365th of your salary to an animal rescue
There’s not a lot going on between Cinco de Mayo and Memorial Day so that’s why we’re excited to give a big shout out and celebration to National Donate A Day’s Wages to Charity Day.
That’s right, today is the day you calculate your daily wage and then pay-it-forward by donating 1/365th of your salary to your favorite charity. Whether that’s your local animal shelter, or the rescue group where you adopted your forever companion, they can surely use your support and will be very appreciative of anything you can do to help. Animal rescues and shelters rely on awesome donors to sustain their operations and keep saving lives so today you can surprise them with your donation.
Don’t know who to donate to? We’re happy to make some recommendations for organizations that do lots of good to help animals.
Flying Dog Rescue
In addition to supporting animal rescue transport, Flying Dog Rescue is also building the National Lost Pet Database to connect animal shelters across the nation with the volunteers helping to reunite lost pets. Having one common database will save time and greatly improve the likelihood of animals being reunited with their owners. Your donation will go a long way towards helping them make this dream a reality.
