Join Us to Help the Animals!
The Seattle Humane Society invites you to participate in its 6th annual Walk for the Animals, a fundraiser to save animals' lives. Join our Walk and raise life-saving donations by asking friends and family members to pledge their support.
“By pledging to support our Walk for the Animals, you will help us to save the lives of even more animals this year,” says Brenda Barnette, CEO for the Seattle Humane Society. “Your contribution goes directly to caring for our shelter guests, to funding educational programs, and to spaying and neutering services.”
The entire day will benefit the Seattle Humane Society. We'll start off with breakfast and fun dog-centric activities. Then we'll walk a 5K scenic route along the Burke-Gilman Trail. Afterwards, stay for FidoFEST at University Village.
