Walk Star fundraising level

Walk Stars are especially passionate Walk participants who raise $1,000 or more for the Walk for Animals. These stars of fundraising make our mission possible day after day, year after year — and we couldn’t be more grateful. Plus, when we gain 130 Walk Stars, we will unlock an additional $10,000 donation in memory of Patricia Roach.

The power of $1,000

Your phenomenal fundraising efforts make a difference in the lives of animals.

A life-changing ride
A gift of $1,000 funds the transport of 10 dogs from an overcrowded shelter partner to safety at AHS, where they’ll receive loving care while they wait for their second chance.

A brighter future
We’re helping vulnerable animals in our community find loving new homes — no matter how long it takes. There is no time limit for how long an animal stays in our adoption centers. A gift of $1,000 allows us to provide 13 days of basic housing and care for a cat in our shelter.

A second chance
As a local leader in animal welfare, AHS can provide dental surgeries, X-rays, and ultrasounds — all on-site. A gift of $1,000 provides X-rays for eight injured animals in need of diagnosis.
