The Paws for a Cause walk and run will be raising funds this month with the Parkland Humane Society.
Both adults and children can register for either a 2k or 5k walk by committing donations. Tax receipts will be offered on donations over 20 dollars, as they will be tax deductible.
Janine Daniluck is with the planning committee for this event, and she has a full day of fun planned.
"We'll have different speakers that are going to be speaking a little bit about the history of the shelter, we're going to have a 50/50 and silent auction. We're going to have a kid zone, which was a real hit last year, so there will be a lot of fun kids' activities. There's also going to be a BBQ available which is going to be co-hosted by the DRCSS culinary team."
Daniluck also has details on how you can get involved with this event and the shelter.
"There are definitely volunteer opportunities at the event for anyone that might be interested in helping, but I know the shelter is also looking for either casual volunteers or people to actually sign up for shifts. The best way to go about doing that is to contact the shelter to see what shifts might be available and to get yourself added on to that volunteer list."
Pre-registration runs until sept 19th, and pledge forms can be found online, or at the Parkland Humane Society.
