Your race makes a difference this April 28th

We hope you will be joining us at the Human Race in Downers Grove on Saturday, April 28th. It’s going to be our best race yet! DuPage Animal Friends hopes to set a new PR with 100 participants and a fundraising goal of $10,000.

As a friend of DuPage Animals, you might have already heard about the new 26-foot Specialty Veterinary Vehicle. Through an incredibly generous donation from the Brooks McCormick Jr. Trust for Animal Rights Law and Policy and a single anonymous donor, the vehicle hits to road in May. The vehicle will provide essential and affordable spay/neuter and veterinary services to the animals fostered with the rescue partners, expand humane education efforts, and improve medical care for shelter animals by reducing the costs to administer their care.

But the work doesn’t stop there.

Through your race participation, fundraising, and donations, we want to raise $10,000 to purchase ongoing medical supplies. So, spread the word about this game-changing Specialty Veterinary Vehicle.
  • Encourage more friends and family to sign-up for the race and select DuPage Animal friends as their charity of choice.
  • Start your own race fundraiser and make an even bigger impact.

We are here to help with social media graphics and templates to take the guess-work out of fundraising. Other important race participant details:
  • There will be a special DuPage Animal Friends race shirt for purchase. Stay tuned.
  • On race day, April 28th, join us at 7:30 a.m. before the race in the main event parking lot. We will have a designated area marked “DuPage Animal Friends.” The Race photographer will take our group photo plus don’t miss this opportunity to meet other DuPage Animal Friends.

Thanks again for running “the Human Race for the Pet Race” so that all homeless animals get the medical care they need and the home they deserve.

Did you know? The DuPage Human Race is a wonderful family and dog-friendly event. (Strollers are welcome.) Bring the whole family to participate or to cheer you on!
