Human Race 

YOU are invited to join the Santa Cruz SPCA's team and participate in the 32nd Annual Human Race! 

 

THE ANIMALS WANT YOU ON THEIR TEAM! 


Greetings!
 

With 104 currently available animals at the Santa Cruz SPCA, we are working harder than ever on animal care and adoptions. 

 

Many special needs animals have come in lately with the help of our Second Chance Fund, and luckily with a little TLC they are getting adopted as quickly as they're coming in.

 

With your help, animal rescue numbers have increased significantly this year. As you know we're all big softies who can't say NO when we receive pleas from other shelters to take animals which are going to be put down. With that in mind, we are working on new ways of raising funds to cover the costs.

 

This is where you come in as we ask you to join our team in the 2012 Human Race!

 

Nothing the Santa Cruz SPCA does would be possible without you, our supporters. Thank you from all of us at the Santa Cruz SPCA!


We love hearing from you. If you have any questions or comments, email sarah@santacruzspca.org

 

Join the Santa Cruz SPCA in the 32nd Annual Human Race Walkathon and Fun Run 

 

YOU are invited to join the Santa Cruz SPCA's team and participate in the 31st Annual Human Race on Saturday, May 12, 2012. 

 

If just 40 people can gather $250 in pledges over the next 3 months (that's only $83 per month, per participant) we will meet our goal. And I think that we can EXCEED it! It's easy to sign up and join the SCSPCA team:

Simply go to http://humanracesc.org/

 
 

 

*Then "Join a Team" on the left side of the page.

  

*Scroll down to the Santa Cruz SPCA (number 212), click, then "Join Our Team".

  

From there, you can enter your information to set up your personalized web page and get started. Please send out emails to everyone you know asking them to sponsor you for this fantastic event!

 

The race starts behind Natural Bridges State Park and follows beautiful West Cliff Drive to the Lighthouse and back. It's an easy 5 miles and participants can run or walk with your dog or your favorite staff-approved shelter dog!  

 

Our goal is not only to raise money but also to bring awareness of the shelter to the public. This will be a fun event, plus you'll get to hang out with the dogs who you are raising funds for! come out and show your dedication to homeless animals. 

For further information or questions about the event, please feel free to contact Sarah by emailing sarah@santacruzspca.org.

 

You don't need to RSVP for this event, merely click the link to create your human race page and you're set! 

Join us and help raise money for our animal friends!

For those who want to participate but do not have access to a computer, just ask when you are at the shelter. Everyone is welcome so feel free to invite your animal loving coworkers, friends, and family to join our team! 

 

The reason we are asking you to start so far in advance is that we will all need plenty of time to collect sponsorships if we hope to meet our goal! It's easy to collect sponsorship money when you're participating for such a good cause. All you need to do is tell people about the SPCA, what the Humane Race is, how they can help...it's that easy! They can sponsor you for $1 or $1000...every little bit helps! They can donate to the team online, or you can collect cash or checks which we will deposit regularly so that we can keep track of how close we are getting to our goal.

The Human Race is an annual event to raise funds, all of which go toward local organizations.

Our goal is $10,000 and I think that if we really put our minds to it, we'll be able to easily make that happen.  These animals are counting on us!
