Background:	In celebration of the holiday season, the San José Animal Care Center (ACS) is launching the #HelpfortheHolidays Campaign. All donations are welcomed with the Campaign encouraging $25, $50, $75, $100, $125, $250, $500, $1,000, $2,500, and $5,000. When an animal arrives at ACS, your donation of just $25 will provide a case of food for shelter kittens, or a new leash and collar for a dog. The larger donations support the Guardian Angel Program which helps provide medical care and essential programs and services that make a difference in the lives of over 15,000 shelter pets each year. Monetary donations are accepted online or in-person via check or credit card at the ACS. Every donor will have an ornament hung in their honor at the shelter's Giving Tree.
