Leashed- Virtual Dog Walk for K9s4COPs
October 1, 2020 - November 30, 2020
WHAT:
Take a walk to make communities safer with LEASHED- the Virtual Dog Walk for K9s4COPs! A virtual walk means anyone can join from anywhere in the world and you set your own pace and distance while making a difference.
WHEN:
Now through November 2020- anytime, anyplace, any pace!
HOW:
REGISTER, create your own online fundraising page and then take a walk with your pup anytime between now and November 2020.
Whether you walk around the block, entire neighborhood or hit the trails, you’ll be part of a virtual movement of citizens like you who care about the safety of YOUR communities and schools.
Invite your family, friends & co-workers and create your own team when you sign up. See EVENT INFO and FAQS for more information.
WHY?:
All money raised by your efforts will help us purchase police K9s for law enforcement agencies and school police departments who need our support more than ever now. A K9, along with the initial training, starts at $15,000 and can exceed $45,000, depending on the K9’s discipline and detection skills. These costs, coupled with budget constraints, often prevent agencies from purchasing a K9 or replacing one when injured, retired, or lost in the line of duty.
Our walk leads up to the Official Virtual Walk Day Celebration Program on Saturday, November 21, 2020 where you can tune-in and watch online from the comfort of your own home!
