Motor Werks Stores in Hoffman Estates Donate to the 4 Paws/1 Cause Walkathon

June 21, 2013 - PRLog -- Infiniti of Hoffman Estates (http://www.infinitihoffman.com/dealership/about.htm), Land Rover Hoffman Estates, and Mercedes-Benz of Hoffman Estates have long been providing drivers from Naperville and the rest of the Chicago area with exceptional vehicles, and now they’re joining hands in support of a great cause.

Many people think that cancer is only a human problem, but it also affects animals, and it does so with alarming frequency. For that reason, research on cancer in both human and animals is beneficial to everyone. The 4 Paws/1 Cause even is a celebration of cancer survivors that raises money for the Morris Animal Foundation and their efforts in the area of pet cancer research. All funds raised will go toward this cause.

The event itself is sponsored by Hoffman Estates Animal Hospital; it’s a 2.5-mile walk that begins at the hospital. The course will take advantage of the grounds and walkways of Siemens Corporation and AT&T. The walk will take place rain or shine.

Participants are encouraged to “form a pack” with friends, family, or coworkers who will all participate under the same name. Packs can coordinate their clothing, dress up their pets, and even carry a banner. The pack with the highest donations will be presented with a plaque.

All who wish to participate will need to fill out a registration form (http://www.hoffmanestatesanimalhospital.com/event-registr...) and a payment form; walkers who are bringing their pets will also need to provide proof of a current rabies vaccination. Donations for participation are:

$25 for individuals
$35 for a family
$75 for a small pack (five people or fewer)
$100 for a large pack (Six people or more)

Participants can address their cash or check to Morris Animal Foundation; credit cards are also accepted. Donations and registration forms may be turned in at Hoffman Estates Animal Hospital beforehand or on the day of the walk.

The Motor Werks stores in Hoffman Estates (http://www.landroverhoffman.com/dealership/directions.htm) are proud to be able to support this wonderful event for a worthy cause. The 4 Paws/1 Cause event is a truly a celebration of those who have survived cancer, and an effort to help even more survive in the future.
