Give Local on Giving Tuesday Through Valley Humane Society; Make a Difference in the Community on December 3

Nov 20, 2019

November 20, 2019—Thanks to a deeply-held belief that animals and people are two equal parts of a reciprocal relationship, Valley Humane Society invites the community to help connect those halves wholeheartedly…and make a compassionate contribution on December 3 at www.valleyhumane.org.

Giving Tuesday is the perfect excuse to celebrate the bond people have with their pets, and acknowledge the impact that the love of a pet can have on a person. Valley Humane Society’s programs are specially designed to serve both sides of the equation. The organization has already adopted more than 600 animals this year into loving families, and is slated to dish out more than 120,000 pet meals to financially-struggling pet guardians. Thousands of children and adults have experienced life-changing acceptance and healing by interacting with Valley Humane Society’s Canine Comfort pet therapy teams.

Donations to Valley Humane Society support lifesaving and life-enriching programs and services right here in the Tri-Valley area, meaning local dollars stay local. The organization does not receive funding from national humane groups or tax dollars. Gifts may also be made in person or by mail at 3670 Valley Humane Society, Pleasanton, CA 94566.

GivingTuesday (givingtuestday.org) is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world. GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good.
