Heroes for Health Research Page for Other Animal or Group

Dogs are heroes in so many ways whether as a search and rescue dog, therapy dog, agility champion or as the world's greatest companion. Now it's your turn to be a hero for the dogs you love. Support the AKC Canine Health Foundation by becoming a Hero for Health Research.

As a Hero for Health Research, you build a custom donation page, then invite family and friends to donte. This section of the Heros for Health Research pages are intended for those honoring an animal other than a dog or for groups, such as dog clubs, who want to solicite support from their members.

Can my personal fundraising page be restricted to help a specific breed or disease?
When a supporter visits your Hero page and decides to make a donation, he or she will have the option to restrict their donation to a specific breed or disease.
