ARF has two major fundraisers during the year--we call one a "Non-Event" which is a mailing with a competition theme between cat and dog lovers, but you don't have to get all gussied up to go anywhere--just mail in a donation!
ARF' Annual Open is a fun golf tournament that anyone can compete in. Each hole has a unique twist that levels the playing field for all players. This event takes a lot of planning and a village of volunteers! Sponsorships from local individuals and businesses allows us to put on this annual fun event.
All proceeds from fundraisers are used to care for our rescues as they wait to be adopted. We are very appreciative of any type of fundraiser anyone would like to do! Birthday parties, garage sales, car washes, dog washes...be creative! ARF truly appreciates any and all donations to help us help more animals in need. We love to see young people get involved and want to help! Bring your ideas - we'd love to hear them!
Many employers such as ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66 and Walmart will match their employee or retiree contributions. Volunteer grants are another way to contribute - either individually or with a team. Please check with your employer to see what programs are offered and how funds might be donated to ARF.
ARF receives Business Reward checks from Staples which are based on a percentage of purchases whereby ARF's phone number is associated to the sale. It's simple! When you purchase anything at Staples, give the cashier ARF's phone number (918-766-0991) for the Business Reward Program. The reward checks are distributed to ARF quarterly and will be applied towards office supplies and copy expenses for ARF.
