Win $10,000 for a Las Vegas Rescue: Zeffy’s ‘Giving Tuesday’ Giveaway Is Now Live

This Giving Tuesday, one lucky nonprofit will walk away with $10,000 — and the winner could be right here in Las Vegas.

Zeffy, a 100% fee-free fundraising platform designed specifically for nonprofits, has launched its annual Giving Tuesday Giveaway, offering a $10,000 prize to one organization chosen through public entries. The contest highlights the power of small actions to create big change, giving individuals a simple way to directly support the causes they care about most.

How to Enter

Participation is open now through December 1 at 11:59 p.m. EST. To enter, visit Zeffy’s contest page, add the name of your favorite nonprofit, and share the opportunity with friends to increase that organization’s chances of winning. Zeffy will announce the winner on December 8, 2025.

Past winners used the $10,000 prize to fund scholarships, support vaccination clinics and to establish fundraising events. This year, that same opportunity could help a Las Vegas animal rescue pay medical bills, stock a community pet pantry, or expand its foster program.

What Makes Zeffy Different

Zeffy has quickly become a trusted ally for small and mid-sized nonprofits because it takes 0% in platform or transaction fees. That means every dollar donated through Zeffy goes directly to the organization — not to processing costs or service fees.

For rescues, that difference can mean the ability to treat one more dog, purchase one more crate, or fill one more bowl. In a world where administrative costs can erode fundraising impact, Zeffy’s model ensures generosity goes exactly where it’s intended.

Las Vegas Nonprofits That Could Benefit

Southern Nevada is home to an incredible network of animal welfare organizations, many of which rely entirely on donations and volunteer support. When entering the Zeffy contest, if you find yourself lost on who to choose, here are just a few of the dedicated local groups:

• Street Dogz – Providing supplies, veterinary care, and outreach for homeless and low-income pet owners.
• Paws Patrol LV – Supporting stray and community animals through rescue, foster, and adoption programs.
• Friends of Henderson Animal Shelter (FOHAS) – Enhancing the care and enrichment of animals in Henderson’s municipal shelter.
• Lost and Found Animal Foundation – Reuniting lost pets with their families and assisting with adoption efforts.
• Paw Partners Unleashed – Providing grants, resources, and community support to animal nonprofits across the valley.
• Resources for Rescues – Equipping grassroots animal rescues with training, tools, and essential supplies.

Each of these organizations plays a vital role in keeping pets healthy, housed, and loved. For them, a $10,000 grant would go far beyond financial support — it would strengthen the foundation of animal welfare in Southern Nevada.

More Ways to Support Year-Round

Even if your favorite rescue doesn’t take home Zeffy’s top prize, there are many everyday ways to help.

Buying groceries can directly benefit animal nonprofits through programs like Smith’s Inspiring Donations, which allows shoppers to link their rewards card to a chosen organization. How Buying Your Groceries Can Benefit Your Favorite Non-Profit.

Many rescues also maintain Amazon wishlists with much-needed items such as food, cleaning supplies, and enrichment toys. Donating new or gently used items can make an immediate impact. Changing Lives: How Your Used Dog Gear Can Make a Difference.

And as the holiday season approaches, keep an eye out for treat, toy, and food drives hosted by local businesses and rescues — small efforts that help keep shelters stocked and families supported. Such as Spreading Holiday Cheer: Dawgs House Launches pup Food & Toy Drive.

Compassion in Action

The Zeffy Giving Tuesday Giveaway is more than a contest; it’s a reminder that generosity, in any amount, strengthens the entire rescue community. Whether through a national grant, a grocery rewards program, or a single donated bag of food, every effort helps keep animals safe and connected to the people who love them most.

This season, one click could help bring $10,000 home to Las Vegas — and keep tails wagging all across the valley.
