Organiser's description

Minnesota Boxer Rescue is excited to announce our 30-Day Walk Challenge to benefit our furry friend Henry! Henry was left for dead on the side of the road after being hit by a car in Ohio, saved by a Good Samaritan and has already undergone multiple surgeries and physical therapy to help him recover with a price tag of $20,092. We are so grateful to everyone who has donated to his care thus far (donations in the amount of $10,937!) however Henry's just went in for an additional surgery March 21st to remove hardware from his prior surgery which was being rejected by his body. He also has a nasty infection that he is fighting and will require an additional surgery to reinstall the ware and another surgery to refuse his wrist once that is healed in addition to his ongoing bi-weekly physical therapy appointments. MNBR anticipates another $10,000 in expenses for Henry with this most recent surgery and upcoming surgeries/therapy bills.

To help cover some of these costs, we are asking you to participate in our 30-Day Walk Challenge. For 30 days, we are asking you to walk every day in honor of Henry and our mission to rescue boxers in need. During this time, we encourage you to reach out to your friends and family for donations to support our cause. All funds raised will go directly towards Henry's vet and rehab bills, helping us continue our mission to rescue and care for boxers like Henry that need our help. MNBR is a 501(c)(3) and your donations are 100% tax deductible.

Every dollar raised makes a difference for Henry. We are so grateful to everyone who has donated to Henry's care thus far and we hope that you will join us for this meaningful challenge, and help us give Henry the second chance at life that he deserves.

Thank you for your support, and let's get walking!
