What Merchandise and Books Does GRRoM Offer to Support Rescue Efforts?

Golden Retriever Rescue of Michigan (GRRoM) offers four main ways to support its rescue work through purchases: personalized tumblers (35% of each sale goes back to GRRoM), Golden Retriever clothing and accessories, personalized gifts (with a Buy One Get One 50% Off code), and the Golden Tales book on Amazon for $20. If you want your money to go directly to rescue and veterinary care, a donation may be more efficient than merchandise — but if you want a physical item and a contribution at the same time, these options let you do both.

Merchandise Options at a Glance

The Personalized Tumbler

This is the item with the clearest stated impact: every purchase gives 35% back to GRRoM. Tumblers come in a variety of colors and sizes and can be personalized, which makes them a practical gift for friends or family who like dogs. If your goal is to maximize the share of your purchase that reaches the rescue, this is the most transparent option in the lineup.

Clothing and Accessories

The apparel and accessory collection covers:

• Cozy sweaters and t-shirts with Golden Retriever designs
• Practical items like mugs and tote bags
• Seasonal pieces, including holiday-themed items for winter and summer tank tops

Because the range spans multiple seasons and occasions, this is the broadest category if you're shopping for a gift or want something usable year-round.

Personalized Gifts and the Custom50 Code

Personalized gifts are currently promoted with a Buy One Get One 50% Off offer using code Custom50. If you're buying for more than one pet lover, applying the code at checkout is the straightforward way to reduce the total cost while still supporting the rescue. The custom photo keychain falls into the same "personalized" spirit — it lets you carry a photo of your own pet.

The Golden Tales Book

Golden Tales is available on Amazon for $20. It was lovingly created by a GRRoM volunteer and shares the rescue stories of 32 GRRoM dogs, with color photos throughout. The organization suggests it works well as a Christmas gift. If you want something to read or give that directly illustrates what rescue work accomplishes, this is the most story-driven option.

How This Fits Into GRRoM's Broader Fundraising

Merchandise is one part of a larger fundraising picture. GRRoM states that for every $1,000 raised, one Golden can be saved, and its published impact figures show where the money goes:

• 2026 through Q2: $76,040.82 spent on care, 67 Goldens rescued, 60 adopted
• 2025: $95,052.83 spent on care, 124 Goldens rescued, 123 adopted

The site also lists an Annual Appeal and Annual Appeal Letter for 2026, so direct donations remain a core channel alongside merchandise and the book.

Choosing What to Buy

• Want the largest stated give-back per item? The personalized tumbler, at 35% back to GRRoM.
• Buying for multiple people? Use code Custom50 on personalized gifts for Buy One Get One 50% Off.
• Want a gift with a story? Golden Tales at $20 on Amazon, featuring 32 rescue dogs.
• Want everyday items? Clothing and accessories, including seasonal designs.
• Want your donation to go straight to rescue and veterinary care? A direct donation avoids the product cost entirely — merchandise proceeds are a share of the purchase, not the full amount.

Prices, discount codes, and percentage give-backs are as stated on the GRRoM site at the time of writing; confirm current details on the shop pages before ordering.
