WHAT IS THE PUPS AND PUCKS FALL WALK-A-THON?

Grand Rapids Griffins players, coaches and front office staff will participate by walking rescued dogs at Mackenzie's Animal Sanctuary for pledges collected by members of the Grand Rapids Griffins Booster Club.

We encourage and invite any and all animal lovers to attend with or without a dog to walk.

Our Goal

Our goal is to raise $25,000 to support the efforts of Mackenzie's Animal Sanctuary, the Mid-West's largest no-kill sanctuary dedicated to providing a "home along the way" for dogs in need. Mackenzie's efforts include not only finding loving homes for rescued dogs, but also maintaining the highest standards of care for the animals during their stay, including veterinary care. The funds raised from the Walk-a-thon will help support facility expansions for a new on-site Veterinary Clinic that would not only serve Mackenzie's resident dogs, but also in the future serve local pet owners by offering affordable spay/neuter services to the public, all for the betterment of our local animal community.
