About this Virtual Run: Join the Arizona Game and Fish Department on its first ever virtual Run for Wildlife! Whether you hit the trail or stick to your treadmill, your support helps us give Arizona’s incredible critters a fighting chance at survival. Proceeds from our Run for Wildlife will benefit our Wildlife Center, where our biologists care for sick, injured or abandoned wildlife — and where their educational Animal Ambassadors call home!
100% of the proceeds from your participation in the Race for Wildlife will go towards food, shelter and care for the animals in need at our Wildlife Center. Many need costly, round-the-clock care, which can run up to $5,000 per animal to nourish them back to good health.
With your support, we’re keeping Arizona’s wildlife wild. Register today, and join us in our mission to conserve and protect these magnificent animals for generations to come! Each participant will receive this petite 2.25″ antique gold medal with a slim black ribbon.
About the Charity: The Arizona Game and Fish Department doesn’t receive any Arizona general tax dollars. The funding comes from things like fishing and hunting licenses, tags or stamps, and via a federal excise tax on firearms and ammunition. Unfortunately, those funds are stretched thin as they work to safeguard over 800 wildlife species. They need all the help they can get — and so do Arizona’s critters.
Donations from individuals like you help them to continue the essential on-the-ground conservation work. Support from your participation in our Race for Wildlife will go directly to the Wildlife Center, where they feed and care for sick, injured, orphaned and non-releasable animals, giving them a new lease on life.
Virtual Strides Partner Event: This event is part of the Virtual Strides Partners Program. The Arizona Game and Fish Department’s Wildlife Center will receive 100% of the net proceeds from this event after Virtual Strides’ partner costs are deducted.
