WHY WE RUN

The Rubey Rescue Run was created to support two key community needs: local animal welfare programs and veterinary technician scholarships.

Funds raised help provide spay/neuter assistance, emergency pet support, and educational opportunities for aspiring veterinary professionals in the Roaring Fork Valley.
