A Great Way to Get Involved
The American Cancer Society Bark For Life™ is a fundraising event that honors the
care-giving qualities of our canine “best friends." It presents an opportunity for people to
be empowered through their canine companions and contribute to cancer cures through
the mission of the American Cancer Society.
At Bark For Life™, families and their dogs come together for a few hours to celebrate cancer
survivorship (human and canine), to honor those that have been lost to cancer, and to fight
back against a disease that takes too much.
The event is filled with family friendly activities, dog walk, silent auction, contests, and a disc
dog show. The dogs wagging tails make Bark a happy and meaningful community event to
support the mission of the American Cancer Society.
As a sponsor, your business can play a significant role in making our 2nd Annual Bark For
Life™ a success. By partnering with Bark For Life™, you will let the community know that you
are associated with the American Cancer Society. Sponsorship provides increased name
recognition for your company amongst dog lovers in our community and will build your
reputation as an organization that cares about fighting cancer.
A variety of sponsorship levels are available and the benefits of each are outlined on the next
page. In addition to sponsorship opportunities, pet friendly, for-profit businesses can also sell
goods and services on-site as a Bark For Life™ vendor (see Vendor Application & Information)
on the last page. 100% of all monetary donations go directly to the ACS.
No matter how you choose to get involved, we know your participation in Bark For Life of
Delaware County will be a rewarding experience for your business and we look forward to
working with you!
