11am to 4pm


You and your pup are invited to paw-ty with us at the FURever 80’s Animal Rescue Fundraiser at BAR K! Lace up your high-tops, tease up that hair, and join us for this totally tubular event to support our furry friends in need.

The party fun includes a DJ & 80’s music, rad raffles, awesome vendor booths, righteous appetizers and drinks, as well as the company of many adoptable dogs from local KC rescue groups.


MOST DELICIOUS FUNDRAISER

You’re invited to take part in the most delicious fundraiser of the year. By ordering a dozen (or two) original glazed doughnuts, 50% of the order will be donated back to TARA!

How it works: From now until April 30, 2024, purchase your dozens online, visit your nearest Krispy Kreme store & redeem using your code. This offer is nationwide, so you can also purchase doughnuts and gift the redemption codes to friends and family across the country, or perhaps some well deserving colleagues!
