Giving Back
We put animals in need at the centre of our events and community. To date, we helped to raise over $30,000 for local charities, dog parks and non-profits; in addition to carloads of donations for local animal rescues.
Through our ticket sales at Willow Wonderland in November, we were able to raise $700 for Whitchurch Stouffville Food Back and $700 for Ontario SPCA, all thanks to the MDA Dog Pack!
To date, we've raised:
$30K+

Previous Fundraising Initiatives
The Markham Dog Alliance is proud to be more than just a community of dog lovers—we are a community partner dedicated to giving back. Since our founding, we have supported local initiatives that strengthen the bond between people and their pets while contributing to the wellbeing of the broader Markham and GTA communities. From organizing charity fundraisers and donation drives to partnering with local rescues and community organizations, our giving history reflects our belief that responsible dog ownership and community care go hand in hand. Each year, we look for meaningful ways to reinvest our time, resources, and collective energy into causes that promote animal welfare, community connection, and compassionate leadership across Markham.
