We can’t wait to walk with you at Paws Walk on June 1, but there is so much we can do before then. The months and weeks leading up to Paws Walk day are crucial for the event’s success and will help us save many, many lives… all because of you! As a fundraiser for Paws Walk, YOU make the difference for homeless and helpless animals.
The first step is setting up your Classy fundraiser page. It’s quick, easy, and completely customizable. Then, get to work contacting your family, friends, coworkers and classmates. Their donations will help you reach your goal.
When you walk on June 1, we hope you will be sporting this year’s exclusive Paws Walk t-shirt. There’s only one way to get it… raise $29 and help us save lives!
The more you raise for Paws Walk, the more animals you help, and the more you will be rewarded. $29 is just the beginning. Once you earn your shirt, keep going to qualify for other awesome prizes.
As you’re fundraising, remember that speaking from the heart is bound to have an impact. Paws Walk fundraising is more than just a transaction. Infusing some heart and soul into your outreach is a great way to inspire your donors and raise even more for the animals.
In fundraising, it’s not the size of the gift that counts most. Those smaller donations can really add up and make a difference for the animals.
Look at the amount left to your personal fundraising goal and figure out a manageable number to get there. Whether it’s ten $20 donations or five at $75 each, use these figures to give your donors a tangible number.
In honor of National Rescue Dog Day, our generous friends at American Eagle Outfitters and Dr. Peter Gray, in memory of his late wife Ellen, will be matching gifts made to Paws Walkers like you, dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000. This match will run Sunday, May 17 to noon on Saturday, May 24.
For a limited time only, the money you raise online through Classy can be doubled! $25 becomes $50, $50 becomes $100, $100 becomes $200…
There’s only one week until Paws Walk day, but so much you can do to help us reach our fundraising goal. By raising more money, you’ll be helping more homeless animals. That means more lifesaving medical care, more rescues from dangerous situations, more transports from overcrowded shelters, and more second chances for deserving animals. You’ll also qualify for exclusive prizes.
