THUNDER BAY – LIVING – Have you ever had a special pet that meant the world to you? Walk in their honour at the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society’s Friends for Life! Walk™ to raise critical funds for animals in need.
The Friends for Life! Walk is taking place in 12 communities across Ontario throughout September. Funds raised support programs and services provided by Ontario SPCA and Humane Society animal centres and participating humane societies across Ontario.
You don’t need a dog to participate in the event – anyone who enjoys getting outside and helping their community is urged to show their support. Those who can’t make it to a walk event location can register as a virtual walker to lace up and walk when and where it’s convenient for them.
“The Friends for Life! Walk makes second chances possible for abused, neglected and homeless animals,” says Daryl Vaillancourt, Chief, Humane Programs & Community Outreach, Ontario SPCA and Humane Society. “Whether you are walking for your furry best friend, a loved pet at home, or on behalf of animals across Ontario, know that by participating in the walk you are taking the first step to give animals a second chance at an amazing life.”
