ARF's Fundraisers

ARF holds several fundraisers during the year starting in February with a "Non-Event". This is a mailing too supporters with a competition theme between cat and dog lovers, but nobody needs to get all gussied up to go anywhere--just mail in a donation!

We solicit sponsorships from local businesses to assist us in our fundraising efforts. Sponsors are crucial to our fundraisers being a success by providing funds for prizes, venue, food and more.

In 2025 we held two BINGO fundraisers that were so much fun! We offered cash prizes and shook things up a bit with special games that were quite entertaining for the crowd. ARF was selected as the benefitting charity for Tails and Tornadoes convention in Tulsa. This is a 3-day event which ARF volunteers attend to show off some of our rescues and visit with attendees to spread word about our mission to help animals in need. In December, we hold our annual Holiday Open House and invite the public to enjoy refreshments and meet our rescues waiting for new homes.

All proceeds from fundraisers are used to care for our rescues as they wait to be adopted. We appreciate any type of fundraiser you or your group 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!
