Comments:Facts about the Walk for the Animals
Since its inception in 1990, the Walk has grown in popularity. Over 3,000 walkers in 2004 helped over $290,000 (another recording breaking year)
The Walk is the HSBC's largest annual fund raising event
All of the proceeds from the Walk benefit the animals in our care
Forming a corporate or family/friends "Pack" (a team of walkers) is a fun way for organizations, families and friends to come together for an important cause
Walkers can earn Goodies - the more money raised, the more goodies one can earn.
With an annual budget of $4 million, the HSBC finds homes for nearly 8,000 animals each year 10 times more adoptions with less money when compared to similar leading animal welfare organizations
The Humane Society of Broward County receives no government funding from national organizations. We are funded 100% by private donations and through special fundraising events such as the Walk for the Animals.
