Pups for Prevention

Pack up your pups and tennis shoes for Family Resource Center of Northeast Georgia's (FRC) 1st Annual Pups for Prevention 5K and Fun Run! Pups for Prevention is a brand new fundraiser with the mission of promoting community awareness of Child Abuse Prevention and showcasing local support for Northeast Georgia families. This event also gives participants the opportunity to show off some of the cutest pups around! This fundraiser supports FRC's mission of strengthening families and nurturing children by providing critical funds that bolster the incredible array of services offered to families in need throughout our communities. 

Teams and individuals who raise the most funds for FRC will also be recognized and awarded at the event. Teams can include families, businesses, or just groups of friends - we want YOU to have a great time celebrating and supporting our community. The top three teams/businesses/individuals who raise the most funds for families will be recognized at the event and awarded 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trophies. During the event, Pups for Prevention will recognize and award the top three cutest pups so dress up your fur babies or let them showcase their natural cuteness for the chance to win! A panel of judges will vote on the top three cutest dogs who will also be awarded 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trophies.  

Sponsors for this event are needed and are more than welcome to set up booths at the event to promote healthy habits for humans and their pups! We will also be encouraging local shelters from FRC's 5-county region to bring 1-2 pups available for adoption. 

Free grilled hot dogs, chips, and water will be provided to attendees.
