Lace Up & Leash Up is Back!

This annual community “fun”draiser supports the Luna Child and Youth Advocacy Centre, with dollars raised going directly to Luna’s critical intervention and prevention programs for children and youth who have experienced abuse.

On October 1st, participants will “lace up” while their furry friends “leash up” for a 10,000-step challenge and photo scavenger hunt. You can complete the challenge with just you and your pets, or why not get your family, friends, or co-workers involved in some friendly competition. There is no set course for Lace Up & Leash Up; you and your pet can do the challenge in any location of your choosing—walk in your neighbourhood, stroll in your favourite park, hike a mountain trail, or explore the streets of your town… it’s entirely up to you!

When you register you will receive a link to create your fundraising page where you can set your fundraising goal, share personal messages, and reach out to your family, friends and colleagues to encourage them to support you in completing the Lace Up & Leash Up challenge… or maybe even get involved in the fun themselves. You might even win some really great PRIZES!

Lace Up & Leash Up is the kick-off to Child Abuse Prevention Month. Every October, Luna and our incredible community of champions join in solidarity with children and youth who have experienced abuse. Lace Up & Leash Up raises critical dollars in support of Luna’s intervention and prevention programs, while also helping to increase awareness raise awareness about child abuse and the role that we can all play in keeping kids safe.
