The work of animal rescue organizations is vital. Every day, countless pets are abandoned, neglected, or left without homes. Shelters and rescue groups step in to provide food, medical care, and a safe place for these animals until they can be adopted. Supporting these efforts is crucial, and this year, a new campaign is shining a spotlight on the importance of animal rescue.
Avia (Aviagames) has launched the 9th Anniversary Play for Paws campaign, running from August 24 to September 13, 2025. This initiative connects mobile gaming with compassion, raising funds and awareness for shelter pets in need.
How Gaming Helps Animal Rescue
In this special campaign, players of Solitaire Clash and Bingo Tour complete in-game tasks to earn “Dry Food.” This food is used to feed virtual animal avatars that represent real pets at the Nevada SPCA, a no-kill shelter committed to animal rescue and adoption.
For every feeding action, Avia donates USD $0.05 to the shelter. These contributions go directly toward rescue efforts—providing medical treatment, food, and care for animals waiting to find homes. What makes it even more powerful is that the pets shown in the game are real animals, creating a personal connection between players and the rescue mission.
Raising Awareness for Shelter Pets
The campaign doesn’t just raise money; it also spreads awareness about the importance of animal rescue. Players can tap on avatars to learn about individual pets and share their profiles to encourage adoption. This extra visibility helps more people see the faces behind the rescue work and understand how vital adoption is in giving animals a second chance.
Partnerships That Strengthen the Mission
To bring even more attention to the cause, Avia partnered with TheGoodHype, known for engaging livestreams and community events. This collaboration ensures the campaign reaches a wide audience, inspiring more people to support animal rescue organizations and shelters like the Nevada SPCA.
Why Animal Rescue Matters
Every year, shelters are filled with animals who need care and love. Without rescue groups, many would not survive. Choosing to support animal rescue—whether by donating, volunteering, or adopting—helps save lives and gives pets the chance to experience safety and happiness.
The Play for Paws campaign highlights how even small actions can make a big difference. Feeding a virtual pet in a game may seem simple, but it translates into real donations that directly benefit shelter animals.
Final Thoughts
The 9th Anniversary Play for Paws campaign is more than just a gaming event—it’s a celebration of compassion and a powerful way to support animal rescue. By turning in-game actions into real-world help, Avia shows that entertainment can be used to inspire kindness and create meaningful change.
