ORGANIZATION: RRUFF - Rocklin Residents Unite For Fido

RRUFF participates in indoor & outdoor events and fundraisers throughout the year promoting the RRUFF Dog Park & the RRUFF Healing Heroes Scholarship Program.

The RRUFF Dog Park events include Run Rocklin, Woofstock, Barktoberfest, Rocklin Community Festival, and many other local dog related events in the Roseville, Rocklin area

The Healing Heroes program raises money to fund scholarships for service dog and emotional support dog training for Disabled American Veterans with post traumatic stress disorder and other invisible disabilities. Events include the following: Women Veteran's Unconference, Heroes & Hounds Motorcycle Poker Run, Grateful Dog Run, Seamus Davey Memorial Golf Tournament, Patriot's Day

We need someone to help with the logistics of each event which may include some of the following:

Help setting up booth - table, chairs, easy-up, handouts, etc

Making sure booth is kept clean and organized during event

Good people skills - will work closely with volunteer coordinator and will assist volunteers during event.

Meet and talk with other vendors and event organizer(s) and make sure RRUFF is a good "event participant" by following all instructions and rules/regs for the event.

Most events are on a Saturday or Sunday in Spring, Summer & Fall during the day, usually from about 9:00 a.m. until about 2:00 - 3:00 p.m.

22 Veterans commit suicide every day. That's 1 every 65 minutes. We work hard to help change that. How? 1 Veteran and 1 Dog At A Time

Mission Statement

Serving Disabled Veterans and the Canine Community

Description

RRUFF was originally formed to establish the first off-leash dog park in Rocklin, Ca. The dog park opened December 23, 2011. In 2014 our mission expanded and Healing Heroes became a program of RRUFF. This program is dedicated to providing funding for service dog training expenses to veterans and first responders with post traumatic stress disorder and other invisible disabilities. Classes are held throughout the greater Sacramento, Placer, Yuba, and El Dorado counties. We continue to manage the RRUFF Dog Park inside Johnson-Springview park. And we continue to fund veterinary care for service dogs in-training as well as assist in finding and adopting, rescuing or purchasing dogs to match with veterans in the program. We have grown substantially over the past four years and look forward to continued expansion and collaboration within the nonprofit community . Our focus will be on raising money for the needs of the dogs in the service dog training classes as well as maintaining the RRUFF Dog Park.
