Giving Tuesday 2015

It’s Giving Tuesday (or as seen in social media, #GivingTuesday) – a day dedicated to bringing everyone together to give back.

For those of you unfamiliar with the concept, here is a short statement from Giving Tuesday:
Now in its fourth year, #GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. Observed on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving (in the U.S.) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving.

In the spirit of Giving Tuesday, we wanted to give recognition to our Alaska team and their tireless efforts to their community and At Speedy We Care.

With several events like canicross, bikejor, scooter and dog rig, for both men and women, participants at this International Sled Dog Racing Association (ISDRA) sanctioned event were able to compete with their family, friends and community supporting them. Thank you to David Pahlke for the photo, right.

We have collected a variety of items, like toiletries, paper goods and warm winter clothing and accessories, for users of the shelter. This year, we were able to expand our reach and collect items in Wasilla and Eagle River as well.

Congratulations to our Alaska team and their continued service to the community.
