🐾❤️ A Heartfelt Thank You from the Calgary & Area Lions Walk for Dog Guides ❤️🐾

What an amazing day we shared at Bowness Park! Thank you to everyone who walked, donated, volunteered, sponsored, and helped spread the word about the Calgary & Area Lions Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides.

The energy, enthusiasm, and generosity of our community were truly inspiring. Together, we're helping provide Dog Guides to Canadians living with disabilities, giving them greater independence, confidence, and quality of life.

While our walk day has come and gone, the fundraising campaign continues until June 30. Every donation made before then will help the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides reach its national fundraising goal of $1.6 million.

If you haven't had a chance to donate yet, there's still time. If you've already donated, thank you. And if you're able to make one final contribution, you'll be helping change another life.

Every dollar matters. Every donation makes a difference. Every Dog Guide changes a life.

Thank you, Calgary, for walking with purpose and making a lasting impact. 🐕‍🦺💙
