The ASPCA (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) is gearing up for Sunday’s start of the 2014 ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge, where a total of $600,000 in prize grants is up for grabs to help shelters save more homeless cats and dogs. The 50 contestants will work to save more animals during the months of June, July and August 2014 than they did over the same three-month period in 2013. Last year’s competing shelters saved more than 56,000 cats and dogs during the contest, an increase of 12,050 over the same period in 2012. “If you’re at all considering making a pet part of your family, then this contest – which will feature major adoption events and promotions in communities across the country for the next three months – is the perfect time to do just that,” says Bert Troughton, vice president of Community Outreach at the ASPCA. “We’re gearing up for what we hope will be another record-breaking year, and the public will be an integral part of this life-saving mission.”
