Dynamite Matching Funds on Year of the Horse Cash Donations…For a Final Time!!
During the month of March, Dynamite ran a promotion in the form of a coupon for $5 off any order. They pledged that for every coupon redeemed, they would match the coupon value and donate the total amount to a charitable association. A total of 644 people redeemed their coupon, totaling $3220. It was later revealed that the Best Friends Animal Society would be the benefactor of the donation.
“We would like to thank Dynamite Specialty Products for this donation which will go towards supporting our mission of No More Homeless Pets®,” says Hillary Hutchens, Best Friends’ development manager, corporate partnerships
Best Friends strives to see the day where no animal is killed in shelters due to lack of space or by having special physical or behavioral needs. Their sanctuary, located in Kanab, Utah, is home to approximately 1,700 animals at any given time. They house a myriad of companion animals in need, including dogs, cats, horses, potbellied pigs, goats, rabbits, and parrots. and the occasional turtle, chicken or sheep. Although most animals are rehabilitated and later adopted out, some find their permanent home at the sanctuary, and live the rest of their days enjoying the 3,800 acre property in Angel Canyon.
Community service has always been a value Dynamite upholds. One year ago, Dynamite gifted 2,800 pounds of dog food valued at $4,200 to the Idaho Humane Society as a result of a Facebook contest. In 2011, Dynamite employees and their families logged over 150 volunteer hours at the Idaho Food Bank and included a truckload donation of plums picked at the company’s own test orchard. Two years ago, the company offered its top distributors a choice of a personal prize such as a trip to Maui or double the value as a donation to charity. The result was $22,000 in charitable donations.
“People who buy our products are passionate about their animals and about making the world a better place,” said CEO Callie Novak. “We attract people who are driven by projects that help animals, improve soil, save lives, and make the world a better place.”
