How will your sponsorship help?
Your valued donations go a long way for the dogs in our care.
£20 could go towards essential vet checks for abandoned dogs when they first arrive, making sure they get the urgent care they need
£50 helps provide a foster care starter package, to ensure dogs in need have access to all the essentials to feel safe and supported
£100 could support urgent veterinary care for a heavily pregnant dog
£500 could pay for full costs for a dog’s entire stay at a rehoming centre
£4000 could pay for a dog's full stay at a rehoming centre providing essential support, medical treatment and loving care.
We're grateful for every single penny raised by our amazing supporters. Every donation makes a huge impact and helps make tomorrow's world a better place for all dogs.
How to fundraise
Once you've registered and signed up for your chosen event, we recommend setting up and personalising your online fundraising page to collect donations.
Signing up will automatically create you a branded fundraising page - no extra steps needed.
If you prefer, you can use a different online fundraising platform such as Just Giving. All funds collected will be transferred to Dogs Trust directly from your online page when you link your page to Dogs Trust when prompted.
