Petsecure Helps BC SPCA Hold Important Fundraiser to Improve Animal Welfare

(firmenpresse) - WINNIPEG, MANITOBA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/04/12 -- Petsecure is proud to join the British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (BC SPCA) as a sponsor of the annual Paws for a Cause event. Held Sunday, September 9 in 35 locations throughout B.C., the event consists of 2 km - 5 km walks that raise nearly $1 million each year toward improving animal welfare in British Columbia.
"As Canada's leading provider of pet health insurance, we're strong believers in responsible pet ownership. We're happy to partner with the BC SPCA as it helps animals across the province," said Glenn Williams, President and CEO at Petsecure. "The BC SPCA helps and protects animals, and does vital work to educate and raise awareness about being a responsible pet owner."
The funds raised for the BC SPCA Paws for a Cause allow the organization to protect and enhance the quality of life for domestic, farm and wild animals in British Columbia.
"The Scotiabank & BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk is a fun way to get involved and make a huge impact in the lives of animals in need," said Farrah Rooney, manager of fundraising events at the BC SPCA. "Our walks include food, fabulous prizes and lots of fun activities for our two and four-legged participants. The best part is that the funds raised help save the lives of thousands of abused, injured, neglected and homeless animals in B.C."
The BC SPCA is one of the many Canadian animal organizations that also benefits from Petsecure's Adoptsecure Program. Adoptsecure provides up to six weeks of accident and illness insurance coverage valued at up to $500 for all newly adopted dogs and cats.
