EVENT OVERVIEW
The Potter League for Animals 31st annual Heart & Sole Walk for Animals is going virtual! We invite you to become a sponsor for our first virtual Heart & Sole Walk/5K Run on Sunday, October 18, 2020, in your neighborhood! As a sponsor, you’ll reach thousands of animal lovers and their canine companions who will come together to raise funds for the Potter League and enjoy a fun-filled virtual community dog walk from the safe location of their choice. Festivities kick off in early September with a virtual vendor village, weekly activities and contests and culminate with a celebratory live Walk broadcast from the shelter on Sunday, October 18.
The Heart & Sole Walk is our largest fall fundraiser and our goal is to raise $90,000 through peer-to-peer donations and sponsorships. Becoming a sponsor is a great way to demonstrate your corporate compassion to employees, clients and the community. With many opportunities to get involved in both our animal welfare and community programs, it¹s easy to give back, feel good, and spotlight your philanthropic contribution.
OUR IMPACT
The Potter League for Animals is Newport County’s go-to animal care and resource center. We provide shelter, medical care, behavior training, and the opportunity for a new home for more than 2,000 animals each year. In addition, we provide support to communities and families through our broad range of outreach programs. Every dollar raised through our sponsorship program will enable the Potter League to continue its life-saving work.
WHAT IS A VIRTUAL VENDOR VILLAGE?
Our Virtual Vendor Village is an interactive map of all the participating vendors and sponsors laid out just as it would have been on event day. Attendees will be able to click on each virtual booth for a description of your business and direct link to your website. As a sponsor/vendor you are able to provide the description of your choice to be included on the map.
