Ring Will Make Donations to the ASPCA® and Local Animal
Shelters for Every Pet Video or Picture Submitted to #RingPets
through June 14, 2024
Ultimate Pet Mom, Drew Barrymore, and the ASPCA Will Help
Choose One Lucky Pet to Appear in Upcoming Ring Commercial
HAWTHORNE, Calif., May 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Ring
announced a new campaign called "Ring Pet Portraits," inviting pet
parents to join the company in raising funds for animal shelters in
need by sharing their favorite pet videos and pictures. Every day,
Ring doorbells and cameras help pet parents capture countless
adorable moments and stay close to pets while away from home.
Beginning now through June 14, for
every pet video or picture post submitted with hashtag #RingPets on
Instagram or TikTok, Ring will pledge a $10 donation, up to $100,000, to support the ASPCA® (The American
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) and up to an
additional $400,000 to local animal
shelters across the U.S. in an ongoing effort to find animals
loving homes1.
"Every year, approximately 6.3 million companion animals enter
U.S. animal shelters nationwide, and now more than ever it's a
great time to support your local shelter by opening your heart and
home to an animal in need," said Matt
Bershadker, President and CEO, ASPCA. "We are thankful to
Ring and Drew Barrymore for shining a light on adoptable pets and
the joy pets bring to a home."
To raise awareness for pets in shelters, Ring tapped pet mom of
seven, actress, and talk show host Drew Barrymore to help spread
the word. The passionate animal advocate stars in a new
heartwarming and amusing short film to reveal the Ring Pet
Portraits campaign, with her rescue dog and co-star, Douglas. The
tension builds as Drew buys time in breaking the news to Douglas
that he can't participate in Ring Pet Portraits because he's a nepo
puppy. Plus, Jeremy, the bearded dragon and part of the Barrymore
family also lands a cameo, appearing distraught on camera that she
too can't participate. In Douglas's first official on-screen role,
the pup-star brought a range of drama he could only ever learn from
his loving mom, Drew.
"It was absolutely love at first sight for all seven of my pets
that fill my home with so much joy and a little dose of chaos from
time to time," said Drew Barrymore. "I'm honored to join Ring on
this important mission, celebrate the special bonds and pride pet
parents have for their animals, and help generate donations to the
ASPCA and local animal shelters."
If there's one thing pet parents have in common, it's the desire
to share unexpected and delightful moments captured on camera with
anyone who will watch. And Ring wants to see it all – from the
sweet head turns when they hear mom's voice using the Two-Way Talk
camera feature, to a full 360-degree view on Ring's new Pan Tilt
Indoor Cam of the mess they made at home.
For pet parents who believe their pet is destined for fame,
eligible submissions tagged with hashtag #contest in addition to
#RingPets will be entered in a contest for one pet to appear in an
upcoming Ring commercial. Drew Barrymore is teaming up with the
ASPCA to help choose one lucky winner. Check out the official rules
for a full list of eligibility requirements2.
