DeMille Award she was presented with at the annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony in Los Angeles on Jan. 28, 1989. The 100th anniversary of Doris Days birthday is being by with a social-media fundraiser honoring her passion for animals. The Doris Day Animal Foundation is asking people to donate to the foundation to help support animal welfare programs nationwide. Day died May 13, 2019, at age 97.
The foundation announced a goal of $100,00 in donations, which it said it would match with funds to benefit animals affected by the war in Ukraine. Day, who was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on April 3, 1922, created the nonprofit group, originally known as the Doris Day Pet Foundation, in 1978. She died in May 2019 at age 97.
A singer and actor best known for 1950s romantic comedies including “Pillow Talk” and “Lover Come Back,” Day also starred in dramas, including Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Man Who Knew Too Much.” In a statement, the foundation asked people to post photos and videos with the hashtag #DorisDay100 that show how the"legacy of Doris and her enduring passion for animal welfare” is being carried on.
