You can also choose the convenience of Recurring Gifts, in which $10, $20 — or any amount — is automatically deducted from a credit card or checking account each month. These regular gifts add up to a generous contribution by the end of the year, and many donors appreciate the ability to help homeless animals with a larger gift — in a way that is effortless and convenient.
