Celebrating more than $5,000 raised in honour of International Women’s Day
April 10, 2025
This year’s Claws for a Cause campaign in support of International Women's Day was truly inspiring. Events were held in practices from coast to coast, raising funds for local charities supporting women and girls.
For a fourth year, nail trim fundraisers were held from coast to coast inspired by International Women’s Day. Participating practices were entered into a draw to win one of three $250 donations to the charity recipient of their choice. Congratulations to Clearspring Animal Hospital (MB), Clinique vétérinaire Beauport (QC) and Don Head Village Animal Clinic (ON).
“The team aimed to make a meaningful impact in honour of International Women’s Day through Claws for a Cause by raising funds to support individuals affected by domestic violence. The funds raised were donated to Agape House, an organization dedicated to providing essential resources, shelter, and assistance to those experiencing domestic violence within our community. This initiative reflected the culture we have built of compassion, unity and community engagement, demonstrating our dedication to making a positive difference in the lives of others and our community.”
–Tamara Bernier-Bland, Practice Manager at Clearspring Animal Hospital
‘’We appreciate you and your efforts more than words can express! Thank you again for making a difference in the lives of those we serve.’’
–Tracy Whitby, Agape House Director
