Fighting animal cruelty is as easy as a walk in the park.
Animal lovers across the province are already registering and fundraising for the annual Scotiabank and BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk, which is being hosted in 30 B.C. communities, including the Tri-Cities, in September and October.
The annual walk, benefitting the Port Coquitlam BC SPCA Branch, will be held at Lafarge Lake in Coquitlam’s Town Centre Park on Sunday, Sept. 11; the festivities begin at 10:30 a.m. and the walk starts at noon. Participants will be able to visit community vendor tables, participate in doggie games and have their faces painted, all in support of the animals.
Supported by our local sponsors, Cansure and Walmart, the event brings animal lovers and their furry friends together for a great time as well as a fantastic cause.
“This is the largest single event to raise funds to fight animal cruelty in British Columbia,” Krista Constantineau, BC SPCA’s manager of fundraising events, said in a press release. “It’s so great to see thousands of people come together across the province to help B.C.’s most vulnerable animals.”
