Is There a Wedding in Your Future? Make a Special Gift or Start Your Own Fundraiser!

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s recent donation to charities ahead of their wedding has us feeling inspired — and we hope other brides and grooms are too! With the wedding bells still ringing, we wanted to remind our supporters and animal lovers alike that there are a few ways to make your big day have an even bigger impact!

Many couples are choosing to make a charitable impact on behalf of their guests in lieu of traditional wedding favors. Couples can make a donation to the ASPCA and provide guests with special place cards noting that a gift has been made in their honor. Honorary giving through the ASPCA allows couples to celebrate their love and give back to animals, all while reflecting their personal values and creating a lasting impact that extends well beyond the wedding celebration itself.

Another effective way to help the nation’s animals in honor of your special day is through social media fundraisers. Creating a Facebook or Instagram fundraiser is simple!

Facebook has a guided setup to walk you through the process, and even allows you to add your own text, dedication and photo. Maybe you want to add a photo of your own adorable pet — you can customize it to your liking! 

Instagram has step-by-step instructions on how to set up your fundraiser and will even help you post a link to your fundraiser in your bio.  

Not the bride or groom? You can still have a big impact, too, by making a special gift in honor of the happy couple!

On behalf of all the humans and animals at the ASPCA, congratulations! Thank you for making us a part of your big day!
