Host an Event

We appreciate all your efforts to help support our programs – thank you!

Host an event for COPE Service Dogs and help us raise funds to support life-changing service dog programs in Barrie and Simcoe County. When you host an event and donate the proceeds to COPE, you directly help us train assistance dogs and fund our Canines in the Classroom youth program.
