On Saturday, October 19, the Veterinary Emergency Group (VEG) is hosting its 4th Annual VEG Cares 5K to support underserved pets across the US. VEG Cares 5K is a fun run/family walk that is pet friendly. There are many ways to participate: timed race, virtual run, fun run-walk, or just join in on the food, games and fun!

All 5K registration proceeds will go directly to VEG’s charitable program, VEG Cares, which provides life-saving care to pets in need in local VEG communities. 100% of all donations go toward providing these animals with emergency care at VEG hospitals nationwide. VEG Cares provides life-saving care to pets in need at all VEG hospitals. These needs include pets with families facing financial distress, animals displaced by natural disasters, police, service & fire animals, and animals under the care of a shelter or rescue organization. Since 2019, VEG Cares has saved over 2,000 animal lives (and counting!)
