Carrie Underwood Celebrity Impact On Animal Charities

When it comes to giving back, time is good, but dollars may even be better!
The Daily Beast profiled several celebrities who, through lending their name and face to campaigns and even personal donations, have contributed to their favorite charities.
Vegetarian Carrie Underwood is a featured giver for her donations to the Humane Society, which The Daily Beast estimated to have an annual impact of $236,021.
“The country-music star recently gave $200,000 to the Humane Society, taken from the sales of her recording of the Mötley Crüe song, “Home Sweet Home.” May no good deed go unpunished: Underwood’s ties to the animal-protection group angered hunters. “It is a radical organization that seeks to end hunting and other responsible uses of animals in America,” griped one leading sportsman. After Katrina, Underwood, 26, recorded a television spot for the Humane Society, detailing the plight of pets hurt by the hurricane.”
Of course, you don’t have to be a celebrity to have an impact.
Do you plan to donate your time to an animal organization in your town?
