To everyone that plans on attending Champion Paws 5K THIS SATURDAY!
I need your help! Please consider bringing a donation to the race to help the hurricane victims of Helene.

I will be partnering with CrossPointe Church for this special need.

What began as CrossPointe Olive Branch "GO OUT Sunday," scheduled for this Sunday, has grown into a community-wide mission to “go love our neighbors” in Eastern Tennessee and Western Carolina, where people are struggling in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

If you would like to help those in need of water and basic necessities, they will ensure that your donations get directly to the people who need them. They have 18-wheelers ready and on hold to meet any transportation needs.

If you would like to help assist CrossPointe with their efforts in this aid, you can directly donate to them.

Our goal for the Champion Paws 5K was to help Opal's Barn, Inc to purchase a new hay storage building. It hurts my heart to say that we did not profit enough to cover the cost once race expenses were covered. If you would like to make a donation to help us raise the remaining funds, it would mean the world to us!

Opal’s Barn is an Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) program (local 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization) provides horse interaction to people with varied abilities. The current program focuses on children who have been impacted by the foster care system.

Donations can be mailed or accepted online:

Thank you for your consideration and support!
