As many of you know, I spend a lot of my away from work time volunteering and advocating for homeless pets in our communities. I ’ d like to invite you to join Paws For Life NC on SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5 th , 2024 in downtown Wake Forest for our largest fundraiser of the year. Please SAVE the date for our 22 nd Annual 5k, 1 - Mile Dog Walk, and Dog Costume Contest (you do NOT need to have a pet or bring a pet to join us!!) Do you love animals? Do you love a great Fall Day for a walk, a run, or getting out with the family? Then come out and support us; so we can rescue animals from local high - kill shelters and provide much - needed emergency medical care, surgeries, vaccinations, spays & neuters, micro - chipping, food, supplies, and lots of TLC! We do all of this as a 100% volunteer run foster program with no local or national funding support!
