DFW Humane Society Set to Participate in North Texas Giving Day on September 22, 2016
IRVING, Texas (August 18, 2016) – DFW Humane Society is thrilled to once again be a part of the eighth North Texas Giving Day on September 22, 2016! On that day, every donation of $25 or more made through the DFW Humane Society profile page on the North Texas Giving Day website will go further with bonus funds and prizes between 6 a.m. and Midnight. All participating nonprofits, including DFW Humane Society, will receive a portion of the total $2.5 million dollars in available bonus funds.
In 2015, DFW Humane Society raised $33,572 from 145 donors on North Texas Giving Day providing more than enough funds to cover a full month’s worth of care for the pets sheltered at DFW Humane Society. “North Texas Giving Day is an incredible event that shows the generosity, caring, and compassion of our donors,” said Sarah Kammerer, Executive Director. “Of course, every day of the year, we have amazing individuals and businesses that contribute to the care and daily needs of our pets, as well as special needs vet care through our Guardian Angel Fund,” Mrs. Kammerer continued. “North Texas Giving Day provides a special opportunity for our donors to magnify their impact through the addition of bonus funds and, potentially, prize money.”
Our donors’ generosity provides the means to rescue hundreds of unwanted pets each year and place them in loving homes. DFW Humane Society is continually awed by our donors and the renewed commitment they inspire in us each day.
