It’s November in Minnesota, meaning it’s time to Give to the Max!
Give to the Max Day (GTMD), this Thursday, November 19, is Minnesota’s giving holiday, a 24-hour online give-a-thon supporting Minnesota nonprofits and schools. Ruff Start Rescue’s GTMD goal is to raise $100,000 to support veterinary expenses for the more than 3,000 animals we’ll save this year. These expenses will total roughly $500,000 by the end of 2020.
Even in the midst of a global pandemic, Ruff Start’s lifesaving work hasn’t slowed at all even though we’ve had to cancel almost all of our fundraising events. We need your help more than ever this year.
Give to the Max is HUGE for Ruff Start, with nearly 20% of our veterinary budget raised during GTMD. But you don’t have to wait until November 19 to make your gift! Early giving starts now and all gifts made from today through Give to the Max Day on November 19 will be counted toward our goal!
In the days and weeks ahead, we will be sharing how contributions from generous animal lovers like you make a difference in the lives of thousands of animals each year. The stories and photos you’ll see are a direct result of your support.
So, from the entire Ruff Start Rescue team, THANK YOU for being part of these efforts. We truly couldn’t save them without you!
