BarkFest's Raising the Woof! fundraising initiative provides complimentary booth space to local Animal Rescue Groups to raise awareness and funds, and find furever homes for adoptable animals.

100% of the net proceeds from our Rescue Raffle 50/50 and Prize Draws, Barkitecture Dream Doghouse Design Contest + Raffle, Paw Path Floor Decals, and 10% of the net proceeds from BarkFest Merchandise and BARKS + BONES Magazine advertising will be donated to this year's chosen recipients, K9 Advocacy Manitoba, Manitoba Mutts Dog Rescue, and Manitoba Underdogs Rescue.

Visit Rescue Road in the BarkFest Market inside Red River Exhibition Place for information and resources on dog adoption and ways you can help animals in need.

Be sure to enter the Rescue Raffle 50/50 + Prize Draws at the Rescue Raffle Booth located in the BarkFest Market by the front entrance inside Red River Exhibition Place. Every raffle ticket you purchase raises even more funds for our Rescue Groups. It’s a WIN-WIN for everyone!
