Event Description

Join us on Saturday, October 3, 2026, for Pope Memorial SPCA's Walk for the Animals—our largest community fundraiser of the year! Gather your family, friends, coworkers, and fellow animal lovers for a fun morning supporting homeless, neglected, and vulnerable animals in our community.

Participants can register as individuals or create or join a fundraising team to make an even greater impact. Every dollar raised helps provide shelter, medical care, enrichment, and second chances for animals in need.

On event day, participants may choose to complete either our 1-mile or 3-mile walking route—no advance route selection is required. Corporate and community teams are encouraged, and participants of all ages are welcome.

As a thank-you for your fundraising efforts, participants who reach fundraising milestones will earn premium branded gear featuring the Pope Memorial SPCA logo, including:

Raise $100: Life is Good Hat
Raise $300: YETI Rambler Water Bottle
Raise $500: LL Bean Boat & Tote (Medium Zip-Top)
Raise $1,000: The North Face Skyline Fleece Jacket

Whether you're walking in honor of a beloved pet, supporting animal welfare, or simply looking for a fun community event, every step—and every dollar raised—helps animals in need.

Together, we can make a difference—one paw at a time.
