Katherine Heigl Launches Shopify Store To Support Animal Welfare
All proceeds from Heigl’s collection of clothing, accessories & home goods featuring her original art and designs will go toward the humane treatment of animals
LOS ANGELES – (March 23, 2023) Actress and animal activist Katherine Heigl announces the opening of Katherine Heigl’s ArtWare store on Shopify, offering collections of clothing and related merchandise featuring her original art. The store is part of Heigl’s ongoing mission to support animals in desperate need.
“Most people know me as an actress, but over the past six years, I’ve also been cultivating another creative passion—making art,” said Katherine. “My collection — what I like to call “art with heart” — reflects my deep devotion to animal well-being while offering products I hope people will love.”
To celebrate the launch of the store, Heigl will donate 100 percent of all first-year proceeds to the Jason Debus Heigl Foundation, a non-profit organization Katherine and her mother, Nancy, established in 2008 in loving memory of a beloved son and brother. Since its inception, the Foundation has given many millions of dollars to save shelter animals, sponsor spay/neuter activities, place animals in loving homes, and provide refuge for abused or neglected animals.
“Katherine’s Shopify store proceeds will support our ongoing efforts to help alleviate the cat and dog overpopulation problem, finance medical treatment and veterinary care, increase awareness of the inhumane treatment of animals, provide funding for grass roots rescue organizations, and much, much more,” explained Betty Paxton, foundation administrator. “She truly has created art with heart.”
