The Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley (HSSBV) will be hosting their Annual Walk for the Animals in a virtual format this year via facebook on Saturday, April 29th from 9:00 am – 11:00 am.
This virtual event will be free to attend by joining the HSSBV Walk for the Animals event page on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/hssbv). Participants will be walking in their own local parks and neighborhoods with their pets and are encouraged to share photos and videos as they do! There will also be fun content posted to the page during the hours of the event including an appearance by Jeff Pope from The Jeff Pope Show on Hot 103.9, video from Purple Easel featuring information on the HSSBV Pet Your Paint fundraiser, special sales and offers from online vendors and more!
Participants are encouraged to create their own fundraising page leading up to the event and collect donations in support of their walk. A free gift is earned for supporters who raise $100 or more in donations (while supplies last). To get started visit https://hssbv.org/Upcoming-Events to create your own personalized fundraising page!
In addition to these awesome activities, the HSSBV will also be hosting the annual Pet Contests on their facebook page with public voting the week before the event. Winners will be announced during the Walk.
After working up an appetite walking with your pets, head over to Jose’s Mexican Food in San Bernardino or Redlands after 2:00 pm with your special HSSBV flyer which can be printed at https://hssbv.org/Upcoming-Events. 15% of your purchase will be donated back to the HSSBV as part of the Walk fundraiser!
The HSSBV is excited to announce our updated Fall event, Santa Paws Pet Photos & Holiday Boutique, will now be combined with the historically in person walk event. This event, Winter Wonderland Walk & Santa Paws Pet Photos will combine all of the traditional Walk elements with the popular Santa Paws Pet Photos & Holiday Boutique and be held on site Saturday, November 18th. More details coming soon.
All proceeds from this event benefit the HSSBV programs and services, including our low cost spay/neuter and vaccination clinic, as well as our Humane Education and Cruelty Investigation programs.
