Contact Christy at [email protected] today to learn more about organizing an event in your area!
As we approach June 21—the date of the horrific Yulin Dog Meat “Festival”—we invite you to join a powerful global movement of compassion, action, and love. From now until June 20, Duo Duo Project is calling on animal lovers around the world to be part of our 3rd annual International Pet Appreciation Celebration, a heartwarming, life-saving campaign to honor the dogs and cats in our lives while taking a stand against the dog and cat meat trade.
This year, we’re expanding our reach and impact—and you can help make it happen in your own community.
Host a Local Adoption Day or Outreach Event
Whether you are part of a rescue group, involved with a local shelter, or an individual animal advocate, now is the time to think globally and act locally. Collaborate with your local shelter or rescue group to host an International Pet Appreciation Adoption Day tied to our international campaign. We’re here to support you every step of the way.
What Duo Duo Project Will Provide for an International Pet Appreciation Adoption Day:
🐾 A vibrant event banner to draw attention
🐾 Beautiful branded tote bags for adopters (up to 100 per shelter).
Note: Requests for totes must be received no later than May 15, 2025.
🐾 A social media brand kit to help you promote your event
🐾 Optional press release assistance
🐾 Promotion of your event and shelter on our website and social media platforms
🐾 Visibility through our Change.org petition with over 5 million signers
This is more than just a celebration—it’s a declaration. A declaration that dogs and cats are family, not food. That love, compassion, and community can help us push back against cruelty.
By partnering with your local shelter, you’ll help drive adoptions, support the work of hardworking animal welfare professionals, and show the world that our love for animals knows no borders.
