I Would Walk FURever To End Pet Cancer  This is more than just a walk, it’s our second annual mission in motion to honor Moose’s legacy and save lives. All November long, pet lovers everywhere will join I Would Walk FURever, a virtual 5-mile run/walk with a big goal: raise $25,000 to spread education, awareness and fund free early-detection pet cancer tests. Because here’s the truth, early detection saves lives. Every dollar raised through I Would Walk FURever helps fund free early-detection pet cancer tests, giving pets a better chance at more healthy days, more memories, and more time with the people who love them.  Why Early Detection MattersPet cancer is one of the leading causes of death in dogs, but when it’s caught early, the chances of successful treatment and longer survival increase dramatically. For example, dogs diagnosed with certain cancers in the early stages can live a year or more with proper care, compared to just weeks without treatment. Your participation isn’t just

Welcome to our UWR5K Family! United We Run 5K is more than a race — it’s a community movement with a purpose. We exist to help children and families experience belonging, confidence, and connection through team sports. Our inaugural race proved what’s possible. With the incredible support of runners, volunteers, and sponsors, we not only broke even — we turned that momentum into real impact. Thanks to last year’s sponsorships and donations, we were able to award multiple full sports scholarships to families in need, along with additional partial scholarships, helping children step onto the field who otherwise may not have had the chance. Now, in our second year, we’re building on that success. Our goal is to grow — reaching more families, expanding access to youth sports, and strengthening the sense of community that makes United We Run so special. Every dollar raised helps remove barriers and opens doors for kids to play, learn, and thrive as part of a team. We are actively seeking sp
