BuzzRx Announces $500,000 Milestone with the ASPCA
BuzzRx, the only provider of free prescription discount cards benefiting nonprofits year-round, announced that its program with the ASPCA (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), which has saved cardholders more than $6.5 million on prescription drugs, has donated $500,000 to the nonprofit organization since the program launched in November 2016. These lifesaving funds could be used to provide nearly 1,000,000 meals (1 meal = $0.50) for shelter cats and dogs while they wait to get adopted. The organizations are proud to help bring pets and people together to promote healthier, more active lifestyles.
The company has seen significant growth in the usage of their card benefiting the ASPCA—with 15 percent growth in the last year alone. The donations have no effect on the prescription discounts and are made at no cost to the cardholder—every time someone saves using the card benefiting the ASPCA, BuzzRx makes a donation to their organization.
“BuzzRx’s support of the ASPCA through this milestone $500,000 donation helps us make a meaningful difference in the lives of vulnerable pets across the nation,” said Christina Wyman, Vice President of Cause Partnerships and Events at the ASPCA. “The ASPCA works to protect pets and keep them in safe and loving homes, and we are thankful for BuzzRx’s vital contributions which elevate our efforts to help pets and pet owners.”
BuzzRx Co-founder & CEO Matt Herfield said, “We are so excited to be celebrating this milestone because we believe in the ASPCA’s mission to help prevent cruelty to animals in the United States. Saving these neglected animals means we are helping people achieve the benefits of pet ownership—they can lead happier and healthier lives.”
