Statement from the Director of AZ Paws and Claws Pet Fostering

"We care about your health! And we care that you stay healthy for your family and your fur kids. Due to the serious and unfortunate circumstance with the COVID-19 Pandemic, we want to abide by the safety guidelines and keep you all healthy.

"We know runners and we know you will need to run off steam! PLEASE STICK WITH US! I'm not going to lie...this is going to hurt. Racin' For Rescues is the most important fundraising event for Arizona Paws and Claws to help save and re-home pets, provide crucial medical care and spay/neuter pets in our community. Your virtual registration will still help us accomplish our goals. We are so thankful for the loyalty you've all shown us as this will be our 4th annual race. We still want to sell out! You can still get your shirt and medal! We will have an opportunity to pick up swag bags to be announced at a later time. Post on our Facebook page and show us how this won't keep us down! We can still come together and save lives.

"As the Director of Arizona Paws and Claws and on behalf of the Board members and our entire organization, THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR FURRY HEARTS!"
--Nancy Hobbs-Ekberg; Director


Join AZ Paws and Claws Pet Fostering for the 4th Annual Racin' For Rescues 5K and 1 Mile event!

This pet friendly event will hit the paths at Freestone Park in Gilbert on April 5, 2020.



Millions of unwanted dogs and cats are put down every year in US shelters. We want to help change that! By participating in Racin’ for Rescues, you will help us find homes for these pets so they may find that loving family they’ve been waiting for. All of our volunteers are unpaid and willingly put themselves and their hearts on the line to save animals. The funds we collect will help us feed more hungry dogs and cats, provide needed emergency medical care, create more neuter/spay programs for the public and get one step closer to saving them all.


THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
