Presented by The Bridge to Hope & Dunn County Humane Society
Join DCHS and The Bridge to Hope at Holtby Hall at the Rassbach Museum on Sunday, October 4th for our Community Festival and Walkathon as we raise awareness for Domestic Violence and create a brighter future for both people and pets in our community.
This is more than just a walk — it’s a day of family fun, all while supporting your community’s non-profits. Together with The Bridge to Hope, we’re raising awareness for Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and raising vital funds for both organizations.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and through this event, we’re acknowledging that violence doesn’t just affect individuals, but families, pets, and entire communities. By joining forces with The Bridge to Hope, we’re committing to create a safe and nurturing community for all—people and pets alike. Come for the walk, but stay for the community, food trucks, raffles, games, and festivities — all for a good cause!
We need your help to make this event a success!
Sponsor a Trail Sign along the path at Holtby Hall for just $50! This year’s trail signs will include pictures of adoptable pets and impact stories for both organizations, creating a delightful path of furry faces, encouraging us as we walk around the Rassbach Museum, and acknowledging our sponsors in a memorable way.
Fundraise on our behalf and help us reach our goal! Raise at least $75 for this event and receive a free family admission and Walk for Paws t-shirt. You can sign up below for your own online donation link and the donations you raise through the link will come directly to DCHS & TBTH, or you can download and print the paper pledge form.
