Hey, animal lovers. What are you doing next Saturday?April 30 marks the first annual Twin Cities No-Kill Walk for the Animals, a fundraiser for Minnesota no-kill rescues and animal shelters. The walk will be held around Como Lake, with registration at Como Park Pavilion (1360 Lexington Parkway North, St. Paul) at 9 a.m.
Bring your pets who play well with others, leashes, and bags to pick up after your four-legged companions.
Collect donations from friends and family before the walk, and bring your own donation as well. Every penny counts.
This year's goal is $25,000.
You can choose your own organization to donate to. Participating rescue organizations include Homeward Bound, Secondhand Hounds, Pet Project Rescue, Minneapolis St. Paul Miniature Schnauzer Rescue, Basset Buddies Rescue, Inc., Gentle Touch Animal Sanctuary, Coco's Heart Dog Rescue, Rescued Tails Animal Sanctuary, Small Dog Rescue of Minnesota, and TLC Canine Rescue. A complete list can be viewed here.
Want to spread your donation around? There will be a community donation jar at the event that will be divided equally among participating organizations.
The No-Kill Walk is sponsored by Happy Hound Rescue. Happy Hound Rescue will be offering adorable 'Dogs Rock the World' t-shirts to participants who obtain $50 in donations.
The walk is on rain or shine. Come support animals in need!
