WHY WE WALK

Whether you are walking in honor of your pet, in memory of a beloved four-legged friend or just to support the animals, every dollar you raise makes a difference! Plus - our Walk for the Animals is so much fun! The Humane Society of Greater Miami is a not-for-profit, private charitable animal welfare organization supported solely by donations, private grants and fundraising events like the Walk for the Animals. We rely on our local community for financial support.
