Wake SPCA K9-3K Dog Walk

The K9-3K Dog Walk will be held on Saturday, April 20, 2013 at Moore Square Park in Downtown Raleigh. Come join more than 3,000 people and nearly 2,000 dogs.

By participating in the 2013 Dog Walk, you will play a vital role in our effort to save lives. The SPCA of Wake County is a local, grassroots animal charity; we do not receive any funding from national animal organizations.

This makes YOUR participation even more important in rescuing these animals in the greater Raleigh area and surrounding communities in and around Wake County.

What are we asking you to do to help the animals?
We are asking you to be both an advocate AND a fundraiser for the animals. Once you register you will have the option of setting up your own personal web page. Built with the same technology that powers personal sites like Facebook, this is all about why you care about animals and care enough to personally engage in the worthy cause of helping them.

You can be an advocate by writing your personal story — why your pet means something to you, why this cause is close to your heart, and then let all your friends, family and coworkers know that you have this web page with your personal story and ask them for donations to sponsor you in the walk.

The K9-3K Dog Walk registration fee is $35 but we hope that will just be a starting point. You can be a successful fundraiser for homeless pets by asking people you know to support what you believe in. Just a little bit of money from a handful of people can really add up! Ask each of your friends or family members for $10 each and very quickly you become a powerful fundraiser for the animals. Make sure you tell them about our exciting move to No-Kill and how proud you are to be a part of it!

How do I get started?
Participation is easy. Get started now >
It’s quick and easy to sign up as an individual walker or to put together a team with family, friends or colleagues. After you register, we will provide you with tools to help you fundraise, including sample email letters that you can send out and your own web page that you can personalize.

By participating in the K9-3K Dog Walk, you will dramatically impact the lives of thousands of animals in our community, helping us care for animals in need and prevent the suffering of thousands more through prevention efforts.

On Saturday, April 20 walk with thousands of other animal lovers who believe all pets deserve to be loved!
