Service Projects

Does your child LOVE to help animals?

Having trouble finding opportunities because they are “too young” to volunteer?

Brighten Up Pup’s Dog Savvy Kids Club seeks to bridge this gap by providing service projects for children and families in our community to support animals in need.

The STITCHING & STUFFIES Project

Enrich the lives of shelter animals -

Donate your used stuffed toys & MORE!

Our Dog Savvy Kids Club is hosting a Stuffed Toy Drive, Stitching Event and Fundraiser to support the non-profit

Glad Dogs Nation.

Stuffed Toy Drive

You can help dogs and cats in need by donating gently loved stuffed toys you no longer want.

GLAD DOGS NATION up-cycles them into safe and fun dog & cat toys that are either donated to animal shelters or sold. 100% of the profits are donated to a wide variety of animal welfare initiatives to stem pet overpopulation and provide food, medical care and toys to shelters and rescues across the country.

Glad Dogs Nation takes ALL SIZES of stuffed toys.

Beanie Babies accepted - volunteers remove the beads.

Please NO toys with mechanical parts.
