It’s that time of year! Our community’s favorite event is here—the 34th Walk for the Animals, benefitting the beloved animals at the SPCA of Luzerne County. We eagerly anticipate a day filled with joy and the chance to meet your wonderful companion pets! One of the highlights is the inspiring Blessing of the Animals from Father Charlie.

This fundraiser is vital, providing essential funds for the care of every lost soul that enters our doors—covering everything from vaccinations and veterinary care to food that fills their bellies and ensures their health and happiness as they await their forever home.

We understand how busy life can get, so if you can’t join the walk, consider supporting us by purchasing a soft and comfy colorful Walk for the Animals tee! Your support is always cherished, coming straight from our hearts to those wiggly tails!
