Bringing Wishes to Life

Arizona Animal Welfare League, a Phoenix-based no-kill animal shelter, is one of more than 50 organizations that are part of the DollarDays wish-list program. Its list consists mostly of items for the animals, such as cat toys, leashes and collars, but it also includes administrative supplies.

At the time purchases are made, DollarDays sends donors thank-you/receipt e-mails. Joseph says most of the organizations involved with the program send their own thank-you notes to donors, as well. Claire Simeone, community relations manager for AAWL, says the organization thanks wish-list donors just as it does its regular donors, sending them personal thank-you letters.
