Santa Paws Parade 
holiday critters

The Santa Paws Parade is back!  The parade was great fun last year, and you can feel good about helping to raise approximately $2,000 for animals at the City of Hayward animal shelter!  These funds are really important in helping shelter staff improve the lives of animals living in the shelter.  Supplies such as toy, treats, medication, and necessary medical attention are paid for using these funds.  This year we are hoping to raise even more funds for animal shelter pets.

 

Participate in the parade, invite your friends and family and even set up your own fundraising page!  Get your pet ready! Big and small, all legal pets are invited. Dress them for the holidays, put them on a float or bring them as they are, and have fun in historic Downtown Hayward raising funds for homeless animals! 

 

If you want to volunteer to help with the parade contact: gloria.ortega@hayward-ca.gov 

 

Proceeds will benefit the City of Hayward's Homeless Animals, and donations and registration fees are tax deductible.

 

Hayward Shelter Animals Thank You!
