The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was the United States' first humane organization. Its motto is to ""to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States." It began more than one hundred years ago in 1866 and today its 750,000 members have helped prevent animal cruelty through education, awareness, and passing legislative bills.

It's very easy to find ASPCA logo-themed items. Not only are they attractive, but you can also feel good about yourself knowing that for every product you buy with an ASPCA logo, 6% of the retail price goes towards one of its humane programs. Even personal checks now contain images from ASPCA.

Some of the programs that are benefited by the profits are a full service animal hospital and adoption facility. There is even a hotline dedicated to poison control for animals. New York City also has a Humane Law Enforcement Department.

For pet owners, the ASPCA is particularly important as it works primarily to prevent cruelty to animals that function as pets. Many people have dogs and cats as pets and can appreciate the work that ASPCA does to protect them. For pet owners, their pets can be as important as family members and protecting them is essential.

There are several different types of images available on ASPCA checks. For instance, you can generally find checks that have both cat and dog pictures, depending on the pets that you prefer. There are at least 5 different types of dog breeds available to choose from.

You don't have to just settle for checks, either. ASPCA matching accessories can also be found to complement your checks. Coordinating canvas checkbook covers, address labels, and even stationary can be found for all of your mailing and check writing needs. The accessories also have a percentage of their profits go toward the ASPCA's programs.

The checkbook covers generally don't hold images of dogs and cats, but rather have tiny paw prints running across the canvas. Orange is usually included on the checkbook covers since it is the official color of the ASPCA.

You can also order duplicate checks with the ASPCA logo and animal images on them. If you haven't considered purchasing duplicate checks before, then you should. They leave behind a copy of the check that you have written so even if you forget to record the checks that you are writing you still have a record of them.

Aside from the checks being stylish than plain white checks, you can also order them feeling good about yourself since you know that the proceeds will benefit animals.

Personal bank checks with stylish images can be expensive when you order them from your local bank. However, by ordering checks online you can save around 50% of the total cost. You can also expect to have them delivered in about 5 days, which can even be faster than your bank can get them to you.
