Katherine Schwarzenegger Speaks Out
"Animals have always been such an important part of my life and my family, and I truly can't imagine our home without them. I'm so grateful for the love and joy they bring us every day. Supporting the ASPCA's Giving Day, especially as they celebrate 160 years of incredible work, feels really meaningful to me," Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt said. "It's a beautiful reminder that even the smallest acts of compassion - like choosing adoption or supporting organizations like the ASPCA - can make a lasting difference for animals in need."
NBA player Myles Turner opened up about honoring the organization as well. He also founded the welfare nonprofit The Casper Foundation too. Turner modeled his organization after also helping animals. It's a goal that he fully supports.
"The ASPCA's mission resonates because it's really about giving animals a fair chance. They're on the ground, supporting rescues, advocating for better treatment, and creating real pathways for animals to find homes. That kind of work matters. It's a mission closely aligned with what we're building through The Casper Foundation. We created it to support shelters, advocate for animals who don't have a voice, and make it easier for more people to be part of the solution," he shared.
