Annex Cat Rescue is once again participating in Canada’s annual day of giving back to the community, GivingTuesday. It’s a day where charities, companies and individuals join together to share commitments, rally for favourite causes and think about others. More than 4,200 Canadian charities and businesses have joined the movement so far.
This year we’ve decided to focus on the gift of Time — YOUR Time. We hope you will join in!
Share your story on social media! Why do you volunteer with Annex Cat Rescue? What is the role you play? Have you adopted an Annex Cat Rescue cat who you love to bits?
You have something valuable to share. Talking to others about why you do what you do will inspire others to help Toronto’s homeless cats.
Today we encourage you to take an #UNselfie. It’s really easy to create one. Here’s how: 1) Take a piece of paper and write “Annex Cat Rescue” and something you love about the work you do as part of ACR to help homeless cats in Toronto. 2) Take your picture (or even better your cat’s picture) holding up the piece of paper in front of you. 3) Upload the photo to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest and other social media channels and be sure to include the hashtags #GivingTuesdayCA and #UNselfie
The above screenshot examples are from Sara S., one of our colony caretaker volunteers.
You could win $100 to donate to Annex Cat Rescue!
Each day from today through November 28, one person will win a $100 CanadaHelps Charity Gift Card to give to your favourite charity.
How can I win? Tweet at CanadaHelps or post on their Facebook wall using the hashtag #GivingTuesdayCA. They will choose a winner each day and share your photo on GivingTuesday to inspire more people to take action.
