Hello, {{firstName}}!

Thank you again for participating in this year’s Dakin Will Run for Cookies 5K. Now that you’re registered, let’s talk about fundraising and why it matters.

Every dollar raised through the 5K helps animals receive food, shelter, medical care, and loving homes. And the best part? You don’t need fundraising experience to make a real impact.

Your fundraising page is already created in your OneCause participant dashboard. You just need to personalize it to start telling, and sharing, your story.

Getting started is simple:

Log in to your OneCause participant dashboard: {{participantEditUrl}}
Add a short story about why you’re participating
Set a photo (pets welcome and encouraged!)

Your goals are already in place:

Individual goal: $100
Team goal: $400

These are totally achievable! And remember, small donations add up quickly.Tell everyone your story.

Are you running in honor of a pet who changed your life, or in memory of one you still carry with you? Each step can be a meaningful tribute. Even if you’re running simply because you love animals, your story matters—and sharing it can inspire others.

You’ve got this—and we’re here to cheer you on every step of the way.

Warmly,

The Dakin Will Run For Cookies 5K Team

Bane arrived at Dakin with a goofy grin that masked serious pain from an old hip injury and chronic skin issues. Thanks to supporters like you, he received specialized care and corrective surgery, all while keeping his joyful spirit. After healing, Bane was adopted by a family ready to give him lifelong love.
