50-State Christmas Animal Rescue Tour

Spreading kindness — one shelter, one story, one state at a time.

For the past two years, I’ve dedicated my 50-state Christmas tour to visiting animal rescues and Humane Societies across the country. In earlier Christmas tours, my mission focused on helping the homeless, kids with cancer, and families facing difficult circumstances — but no matter the theme, the purpose has always been the same: to spread kindness and bring hope during the holiday season.

This year, just like last year, I’ll be traveling to all 50 states, stopping at rescues and shelters to highlight their incredible work. At each visit, I drop off animal food, meet the compassionate people behind the rescue, interview one staff member, and share their story on social media so the world can see the impact they’re making. My goal is simple: shine a light on these organizations and encourage others to support them however they can.

Nominate an Animal Rescue or Humane Society

If you know an animal rescue or Humane Society in your state that deserves a visit, please fill out the form below. You can nominate a rescue you love, volunteer with, adopted from, or simply admire. Your nomination helps guide my route and ensures I’m spotlighting organizations truly making a difference in their communities.

Projected State Visit Dates

Below, you’ll also find the projected dates for when I’ll be in each state. These dates give rescues a general idea of when I’ll be nearby. While travel times may shift slightly due to weather or scheduling, this timeline will serve as the main roadmap for the tour.

Thank you for helping me make this mission meaningful. Together, we can lift up rescues across the country — one story, one shelter, one animal, and one act of kindness at a time.

Support the Tour

If you’d like to help us give away bags of cat and dog food during the 50-state tour, any support is greatly appreciated. Each bag ranges from $15–$20, and every donation helps us bless another rescue, shelter, or animal in need. Together, we can make an even bigger impact for the animals and the people who care for them.
