===ASPCA===
McLachlan supported the [[American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals]] by appearing in advertisements. She filmed a two-minute advertisement for the organization which featured her song "[[Angel (Sarah McLachlan song)|Angel]]".<ref name=Strom /> The advertisement's imagery of shelter animals mixed with the soundtrack and McLachlan's simple appeal for donations has raised $30 million for the ASPCA since it began to air in 2006, which allowed the organization to air appeals in higher profile prime-time cable ad slots; subsequently the organization produced a new ad for the 2008 holiday season featuring McLachlan appealing for the ASPCA over her ''[[Wintersong]]'' performance of "[[Silent Night]]", and a new ad with her was released in January 2009 featuring the song "Answer".<ref name=Strom /> In 2012, McLachlan wrote a letter on behalf of [[People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals|PETA]] to then-Canadian Prime Minister [[Stephen Harper]], protesting that country's annual [[seal hunt]].<ref>Kenyon Wallace, "[https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/politics/article/1159336--sarah-mclachlan-asks-stephen-harper-to-end-seal-hunt?bn=1 Sarah McLachlan Asks Stephen Harper to End Seal Hunt] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120623142056/http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/politics/article/1159336--sarah-mclachlan-asks-stephen-harper-to-end-seal-hunt?bn=1 |date=June 23, 2012 }}", Toronto Star, April 10, 2012.</ref> During [[Super Bowl XLVIII]] on February 3, 2014, McLachlan parodied her ASPCA appeals in an [[Audi]] commercial featuring a "Doberhuahua" dog gnawing on the neck of her guitar.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/wp/2014/02/02/audis-menacing-mutt-super-bowl-commercial/|title=Audi's menacing mutt Super Bowl commercial|last=Judkis|first=Maura|date=February 2, 2013|newspaper=[[The Washington Post]]|access-date=February 3, 2014}}</ref> She would also do another parody of these appeals on [[Super Bowl LVII]] on February 12, 2023, this time for a commercial for [[Busch Light]].<ref>{{cite news|title=People Are Saying Sarah McLachlan's Super Bowl Ad for Busch Light Is a "Masterpiece"|url=https://www.countryliving.com/life/entertainment/a42789858/busch-light-super-bowl-commercial-sarah-mclachlan/|work=Country Living|date=February 7, 2023}}</ref>
