Be part of the #GivingTuesday movement!

#GivingTuesday is the global movement to kick off the holiday giving season. Everyone has something to give, and every act of generosity counts, whether monetary or an act of kindness!

Looking for alternatives for traditional gift-giving this holiday season?
Here are some ideas:

* Offer to take your neighbour’s Golden for a walk
* Offer to dogsit your friend’s Golden overnight so they can have a night out
* Offer to groom your friend’s Golden (and then offer to vacuum their house)
* Bake some dog cookies for your local furry friends
* Give some Golden Rescue apparel/swag from our store
* Volunteer for Golden Rescue; we are always looking for keen volunteers!
* Foster a Golden
* Donate – for yourself in honour of your Golden, or for someone else (Please use the Giving Tuesday option under the dropdown menu “Apply your donation to a fund set up by this charity”)

Are you an employer looking for a meaningful gift for your team?

With many companies moving away from traditional Christmas parties and gifts for employees, why not make a donation from the company on the team’s behalf to Golden Rescue instead of a giving a gift many will likely never use or throw away?

This is a powerful visual portraying 60 million unwanted gifts…
