Tips

  • Start strong! Research shows people are more likely to donate to a campaign that already has donations. Kick-off your fundraiser by making the first donation!
  • Share our posts with your followers to get them excited about our mission.
  • Below is a blurb you can use to share your fundraiser:

“This #GivingTuesday I’m raising funds for Asheville Humane Society to work towards a community where every pet is safe, loved, and thriving. Whether you can give $5, $25 or $500, it will make a difference. Thank you for supporting a cause I care deeply about – your generosity makes happy tails possible!”

Thank you again and again for your support. You make our mission possible!
