Our movement is driven by the dream of a kinder tomorrow—one where factory farms are a thing of the past, and farmed animals are no longer exploited for food. Lasting change requires time, dedication, and advocates like you, who are committed to making this dream a reality.
A Special Opportunity to Increase Your Impact
By making a planned gift to Mercy For Animals, you’re not just securing our future; you’re investing in a future where farmed animals are free from suffering. Your gift will be a lasting legacy that ensures this work endures for generations to come.
Right now, you have a special opportunity to make an immediate impact through a matching challenge—helping farmed animals today.
Matching Gift Pledge for the first 50 Donors
A generous donor has pledged $25,000—offering a match for every legacy commitment we receive, up to the first 50 donors.
$500 will be matched for supporters who notify us of a new legacy commitment.
$2,000 will be matched for existing Mercy’s Meadow Legacy Society members who disclose their previously unshared gift amounts.
$2,500 will be matched for those who both disclosed their planned gift and took the additional step of sharing their approximate gift value.
Here’s how to activate your match:
-
Contact your financial institution, speak with your estate attorney, or use our free online estate planning tool to learn how to include Mercy For Animals in your will or legacy plan. Your commitment can be adjusted at any time.
-
Once your legacy gift is finalized, simply complete a gift notification form to activate the match.
Your legacy will ensure the fight for farmed animals’ freedom continues long after we’re gone, and that their voices are heard for generations to come.
