Birthday Match Inspiration: National Rescue Dog Day
May 18, 2024

We want to celebrate your birthday! And while we would love to throw you a big party with pizza, cake (chocolate, please!) and balloons, we have another idea in mind. Through GBU’s Birthday Match benefit, we will match up to $100 when you donate to your favorite 501(c)3 organization. And if you decide to do a birthday fundraiser on Facebook, we will match your fundraiser up to $250!
This means that your donation goes even further.
So, what do you think? Looking for inspiration? The month of May brings National Rescue Dog Day. A GBU member with a recent or upcoming birthday could consider utilizing the
Birthday Match benefit to help a pet rescue organization in their area. The donation could help provide the animal shelter with food, medical care and more.

Please note that you have until the last day of next month to submit your application. For example, if your birthday is in February, you have until March 31 to apply. Additionally, you must complete an application
to qualify for this benefit.
Each year, we set aside time to deep clean and organize our homes. But when was the last time you set aside time to organize your finances? We sat down with GBU Life Home Office agents Leah Teahl and Dominic Nicciai to learn about the benefits of an annual financial review and how you can get started.
Every child can name a teacher who made a difference: the one who stayed late to help, offered encouragement at just the right moment or made learning feel exciting. Recognizing a teacher’s dedication doesn’t require grand gestures, but it does call for intention. Thoughtful appreciation gifts, especially during Teacher Appreciation Week or year-end celebrations, offer a tangible way to express heartfelt gratitude.
