The kick-off date for the 2022 campaign is November 12. Monetary donations will be accepted at the Gas City Dog Club for the many animal rescue organizations in the community. Donation envelopes and a drop-box for donations will be available at Gas City Dog Club so that you can donate to the organization of your choice.

In 2001, the Gas City Dog Club became incorporated as a “Not for Profit” organization under the Alberta Societies Act. This status means that no member of the club may benefit financially due to their club membership. The Gas City Dog Club is not a registered charity. Club members volunteer their time to provide classes, hold fundraisers for local pet organizations (such as the holiday Angel Tree), and host/participate in community events. Members also volunteer to make the Gas City Dog Club a more positive environment for everyone to enjoy.
Funds raised through club activities such as obedience classes and various drop-ins are utilized for:
