Join us for Walk for Animals 2013 – a fun Napa Humane event and leisurely walk through Downtown Napa (with or without a pooch!) in support of pets throughout the Napa Valley.

This short walk goes miles and miles for animals!  And this year...we take over the streets!

Beginning and ending at Veterans Memorial Park on Main Street, registered walkers will receive a Walk for Animals t-shirt and a goodie bag, and enjoy music, doggie contests, pet-centric activities, photo opportunities and more as we come together to walk to raise funds for Napa Humane – serving Napa Valley pets and their people.

Enjoy the morning stroll with a four-legged or two-legged friends or gather together a team of friends, family, or co-workers to raise funds and fun!

Here's how to get started:

  • Go to Napa Humane’s FirstGiving page – that’s the site we are using for each participant to securely collect Walk donations. Get there using the “Register Now” button below.
  • Register for $25.
  • Create your online profile page…and you’ll have the option to join or create a team.
  • Request donations from family, friends, and colleagues in your honor, and/or in honor or memory of a much loved pet.
  • Join our pet-loving community and have a blast at the Walk for Animals!

It’s that’s simple…and 100% of proceeds benefit Napa Humane’s programs and services helping Napa Valley pets and the people who care for and about them.

Can’t make it to the Walk? No problem! You can still participate by registering and creating a profile page and use it to send out fundraising emails to your peeps.  We'll get your t-shirt and goodie bag to you if you aren't able to join that day.

You’ve registered…now what?

Registering is just the beginning… now it’s time to rally your animal-loving friends and family for support!

The best way to collect donations is via your Walk for Animals personalized web page that has all your Walk information. Just email the link to your web page to friends, family, colleagues…and anyone else you can think of who wants to help you help animals (or share it on Facebook) – everyone who sees the link is just a click away from making a secure online donation on your behalf.

You can also download the Donations Collection Form and collect cash donations or checks made out to Napa Humane and add them to your online total. For more information and instructions for offline donations see the Fundraising FAQs.

Are you the leader or want to be the leader of a team? Download your Team Toolkit here. You’ll find everything you need to know about Napa Humane, where your donations go, the rules for the event, how to rally a team, and some helpful tips on how to raise funds!

Raise funds and receive great thank you gifts!

Earning prizes isn’t why we join the Walk for Animals…the biggest satisfaction of raising funds is helping animals, of course! But, they can put the “fun” in fundraising! Thank you gifts are offered at the following fundraising levels:

 $75 - $125 - $250 - $500 - $750 - $1,000 - $3,500 - $5,000

Prizes will be announced soon!

And in addition to prizes, recognition will be given to the top fundraisers in these categories:

  • Individual Fundraiser
  • Friends/Family Team
  • Business/Corporate Team

(Please note that Napa Humane's team is not eligible for the top team award.)
