Taking a stroll with your pet and meeting thousands of other pet lovers is a fun day out, but there’s also an important reason to tie up your sneakers and head to the Track. Mutt Strut 2012, presented by Harrison College, is our largest annual fundraiser.
Your fundraising matters because you are saving lives! Every year, more than 10,000 animals are put down in Marion County and you’re doing your part to help save these animals.
Approximately 6,000 animals are taken in by IndyHumane every year and each of these animals requires an average of $700 worth of care. All animals are given a thorough medical exam, spayed or neutered as necessary, microchipped, and temperament-tested to make sure they are physically and mentally ready to be adopted. We are the only shelter in the state with a fully staffed medical team and surgery suite, allowing us to care for animals that come to our shelter, as well as animals who need help from other shelters and rescue groups. We believe every animal’s life is worth saving. So, any funds that you can raise will make a difference!
We receive no tax dollars from our local or state government, nor are we members of the Humane Society of United States or the ASPCA, which is why your fundraising is so important to us. We are so appreciative that you’re involved – and our animals are, too.
It’s easier than you think. Many of the people you see and talk to on a regular basis will be happy to help, if they know you are fundraising! All it takes is a second to ask. IndyHumane has put together some tips to aid you in your efforts. Contact us and we can also provide you with a really cool Mutt Strut collection box for your desk or business, or fundraising Paw Prints to easily collect donations one dollar at a time! Check out the pictures of each below.
Top fundraisers really get to show their stuff–we have great incentives, and the top individual fundraiser will become Top Dog for 2013.
