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.
