The distribution of the estate is then made after the donor’s death. The donor may list YOUR Humane Society SPCA as a beneficiary in their will. The donor should consult with their tax advisor. The Trust would ultimately collect the policy value and the donor may be entitled to an income tax deduction in the amount of the policy’s value. If you have a life insurance policy that is no longer required, transferring the policy to the YOUR Humane Society SPCA may provide benefits to both YOUR Humane Society SPCA and the donor. The ASPCA says the vast majority of donor dollars go directly toward its mission, but a CBS News investigation found there are questions about whether the money is going where donors expect. The market value of the securities is deductible in the current year’s tax return. This method conserves the donor’s cash while helping to avoid capital gains tax on the sale of appreciated securities. To do so, you can use the form above, or include a note with your donation if you send by mail. Many employers have Matching Gift programs which would double your donationĪ donor may wish to make a gift in memoriam of a family member, valued friend, or pet.

For the many horse enthusiasts around the country who are looking to get more involved with these amazing animals, how do you recommend getting started with horses? You can volunteer at a local rescue, take riding or driving lessons, support a local horse show-just being around horses is good for the soul. But you don't have to own or adopt a horse-you can be involved with horses in so very many ways. I think there is a "right horse" out there for everyone. Kressley: Horse ownership is a big commitment but so very rewarding. To make a gift with PayPal, please select it as your payment option on any San Diego Humane Society donation form. And then of course the people! Horse people are a worldwide fraternity and are like family to me! Kressley: I love horses so much, really any nice horse of any breed is a thrill for me. What is your favorite thing about having horses? They really are very people-oriented! Sometimes it makes sense to compare them to a dog breed, and in that case I would liken them to a Standard Poodle-very smart and very energetic and engaging. I've been around many, many breeds and each has their strong suit, but Saddlebreds have the most incredible personalities. But really this intelligence, responsiveness and energy is what makes them so great.
They are energetic and high spirited-and that sometimes gives them a bad rap. What can you tell potential adopters about Saddlebreds, and what makes the breed so special? You are a lifelong fan of Saddlebred horses. Not surprisingly, their runway collections were very equestrian inspired! We recently had an episode which included a HOUSE OF KRESSLEY fashion design challenge. Kressley: No, not yet! But I like this idea. Have you ever considered using a horse in any of your challenges for the contestants on Drag Race? That has helped immensely in my showbiz career. It gave me confidence and the ability to connect with all kinds of people. For over 150 years, the ASPCA has worked tirelessly to put an end to animal abuse and neglect. I think it had a huge impact on me as a young person. Kressley: I was lucky to show horses all over the country, and I met so many interesting people doing so. How has showing and competing with horses helped prepare you for your role as judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race? I grew up thinking it was normal to have a couple hundred ponies in the backyard. Kressley: I was lucky enough to be raised in a "horsey" family as my grandparents had a hobby farm-which became quite large-raising, showing and selling Shetland Ponies since the 1950s.
But many people don’t know that Kressley is an avid horse enthusiast and equestrian! We caught up with Kressley just in time for Adopt a Horse Month to talk about how horses have enriched his life. Carson Kressley is well known for cutting-edge fashion design and his unforgettable star turns on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, RuPaul’s Drag Race and other hit television shows.
