The Organizations: The American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund
The American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its congressional charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, provides relief to victims of disaster and helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies. Every year the American Red Cross assists more than 600,000 disaster victims across the nation. In fact, every eight minutes its volunteers and employees help individuals whose homes, stability and peace of mind have been rocked by disaster. The Disaster Relief Fund enables the American Red Cross to provide timely and direct relief assistance and life-saving services to victims of natural and man-made disasters. The fund allows the organization to provide immediate emergency assistance including food, shelter, clothing, physical and mental health services and basic relief services. Its mission is to help the individuals, families, communities – and ultimately the nation – recover from sudden catastrophes that threaten to break America’s resolve. All American Red Cross disaster assistance is free, made possible by voluntary donations of time and money from the American people. Your donation to the Disaster Relief Fund helps the victims of the more than 67,000 disasters that take place across the nation every year. The American Red Cross will always be there for people whenever disaster strikes. For those Fovy users who choose to support the American Red Cross, the majority of advertising profit generated by you will be directed to the Disaster Relief Fund.

The SPCA is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to the prevention of cruelty to animals and the promotion of healthy programs that nurture positive relationships between people and their animal companions. The SPCA’s goals are to provide temporary refuge to homeless animals while a permanent home can be located, to reduce overpopulation of animals through promotion of spaying/neutering campaigns and public education, and to reduce cruelty and abuse through partnerships, education, and policy guidance. The SPCA provides a wide variety of programs for the communities they serve. While finding loving, safe homes for the adoption of a new friend continues to be their primary concern, they also provide: 
Funds raised are directed toward covering operating expenses which include veterinary care, food, bedding, renovations to shelters, and staff dedicated to finding the right home for every animal possible. All dogs are released with a distemper/ parvovirus combination vaccination, kennel cough (Bordatella) vaccination, a leash and collar. All cats are released with a distemper/ upper respiratory combination vaccination and a reusable cardboard cat carrier. Kittens and puppies under four months are also dewormed. 
For those Fovy users who choose to support the SPCA, initial advertising income generated by that activity will be directed to the Peninsula SPCA in Newport News, Virginia. If donations exceed $5,000 in any given month, the amount over that cap will be directed toward the American Humane Association.
