Elizz Paws Walk 2024

Are YOU Ready to Walk for Elizz Paws?

Elizz Paws is a companion dog visiting program which connects volunteers and their dogs with clients who are living in isolation, in a hospice or receiving palliative care. The dogs (and their adult companions) go and visit these clients, providing them the unconditional love and support that only dogs are capable of, enhancing their end of life care.

It has been proven that petting a dog lowers blood pressure, calms people and creates a comforting environment. It is the Foundation’s belief that these furry friends will help us provide comfort, hope and happiness to clients.

^5th Annual Virtual Walk in support of Elizz Paws!

• Dates: May 1 - December 31, 2024
• Location: Virtual Walk

What's the process for a virtual walk?

The process is simple:

• Register for the Walk (register here).
• Create your participant profile – you’re able to upload a photo, tell your personal story and customize your donor page.
• Ask your friends, family and colleagues to support your virtual walk and make a donation towards care for our patients and families who use Elizz Paws Dog Visitation Program. This year’s walk runs until December 31, 2024 so there’s lots of time to reach out. 
• Complete a virtual walk in your neighbourhood. Whether it’s on your own or with family or even your colleagues (maintaining at least 6 feet of separation), get out, get active, and help to support the program!
