Join us at the Tampa Walkathon & 5K Run!

 

TOGETHER we’re changing the world, one dog and one life at a time.

Bring your family, bring your dogs, bring your friends, and bring your friends' dogs to the Tampa Walkathon at Gadsden Park on March 23, 2024!

This free, family-friendly event includes a 3K walk and a dog-friendly party in the park featuring lively music, delicious food, vendor and sponsor booths, an exciting raffle drawing, and much more.

Walkathon is Southeastern Guide Dogs' largest fundraiser of the year and proceeds help us breed, raise, train, and match our amazing dogs with people with vision loss, veterans with disabilities, and children who need a best friend.

Whether you raise funds for our mission or simply bring your dog to the party in the park, we'll see you at Walkathon!
