Fundraiser to save West Virginia greyhounds

I am running so the greyhounds don’t have to!

 

My name is Christine Dorchak and I am the co-founder and President of GREY2K USA Worldwide. On June 18, I will be doing a 5K run in Cambridge,  Massachusetts to raise funds for the nearly 2,000 greyhounds running for their lives in West Virginia. Please help me raise $25,000 to help launch the biggest campaign ever to ban dog racing at two tracks in the Mountain State.


 

At Tri-State Greyhound Park and the Wheeling Island Racetrack, 10,000 dogs have been injured since 2008. In 2021 alone, 627 greyhound injuries were reported and twelve dogs died. GT’s Cocobolo had a heart attack at the age of three. One-year-old Flying Betty Lou crushed her skull in a practice race. And poor Living Fast died of a seizure in his cage. He was only two years old.

 

We can’t let this go on any longer.

 

GREY2K has a history of success, ending dog racing in 13 states and shutting down nearly 50 US tracks so far. We rely on donations from caring people like you to turn our dreams, goals and strategies into a happy reality for the hounds. Won’t you please help by sponsoring my run today?
