Collect Pledges

Registering is the first step in helping the animals. To make an even bigger impact, we encourage you collect donations from your family, friends and colleagues. If every participant collected just one $25 pledge, we’d raise another $75,000! Think of all the lives that could save. To read about how the Help the Animals Fund saves lives, click here. And don’t forget to talk to your company about matching donations!
