Other Support

Making donations through automatic payroll deductions, matching gifts, and even online shopping are easy ways to contribute to AAVS and help animals.

Workplace Matching Gift Programs

Many companies offer matching gift programs to encourage charitable giving by their employees. Your gift can be doubled or, in some cases, even tripled! Please remember to include the appropriate corporate forms when sending your gift to AAVS. It is often possible to request a payroll deduction and have the donation processed by your employer and accompanied by the matching amount at the same time.

Online Shopping and Web Searches

You can support AAVS while surfing the net for books, music, and more! Choose one of the sites below, select AAVS as your preferred charity, and then link to various participating online merchants through the site’s portal.
