Giving Tuesday

Every year, countless pets in our community need a safe place, medical care, and love. At the Animal Defense League of Texas, we rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome pets in need while advocating for their welfare.

This Giving Tuesday, your donation will directly support lifesaving programs, including veterinary care for injured and sick pets, food, shelter, and enrichment for our furry residents, adoption services to help pets find their forever homes, and education and outreach programs to promote pet welfare.

Your generosity enables us to continue giving pets a second chance at life. Every dollar counts, and every gift brings us closer to a future where every pet is safe, healthy, and loved.

Join us in making a difference this Giving Tuesday—because every paw deserves a happy ending!

You may have seen recent news about the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which includes changes to the tax law that could affect your charitable giving this year. Here’s what you need to know:

• Charitable deductions may now be available even if you don’t itemize
• If you do itemize, your charitable donations must exceed 0.5% of your adjusted gross income (AGI) to be deductible
• Higher-income taxpayers may face limits on how much they can deduct
• The standard deduction has increased, which may affect how you choose to file

Since tax situations vary, we recommend speaking with a tax professional about how these updates may affect your personal giving.

Thank you for your continued support of ADL and the pets who rely on you. 🐾
