A huge thank you to KSTP 5 Eyewitness News for helping us spread the word about Animal Ark's upcoming Annual 3K Walk for the Animals! Community partnerships like this are invaluable in helping us reach more animal lovers and supporters who make our lifesaving work possible.
We would also like to extend a very special thank you to Dasha Volvatch, Animal Ark Board Treasurer, for representing the shelter and sharing our mission during the interview. Dasha did a wonderful job highlighting not only our annual fundraiser, but also the important role Animal Ark plays in rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming homeless animals throughout our community.
Every registration, donation, sponsorship, and shared post helps provide food, shelter, medical care, and second chances to animals who have nowhere else to turn.
We hope you'll join us for a fun-filled day of walking, food, vendors, games, and celebrating the incredible bond between people and animals!
Thank you, KSTP-TV, for giving Animal Ark a voice.
Thank you, Dasha, for being such a passionate advocate for the animals.
