Come be part of something meaningful

From fundraisers to community gatherings, GRIN events bring people together to support golden retrievers in need. Every ticket, every volunteer, and every moment helps move our mission forward.

Signature events that make it all possible

Some events have become staples in the GRIN community — bringing together supporters, volunteers, and dog lovers year after year.

Golden Gala

Our largest fundraiser of the year — and one of the most important. This event helps fund the care of countless dogs and brings the entire GRIN community together for an unforgettable evening.

Bark in the Park

A relaxed, dog-friendly gathering where supporters and their pups come together to celebrate, connect, and enjoy the outdoors.

Howl-O-Ween Party

A fun, seasonal favorite filled with costumes, community, and plenty of golden energy.

Volunteer & Member Events

From appreciation gatherings to social events, these moments are about celebrating the people who make this work possible.
