Events
Freedom Ride Rescue has events most weekends – moving all over the Triangle! It gives us a time to showcase our adoptable dogs – while socializing them with other dogs, new people and allowing them to experience different environments.
Our events also help us raise funds for Freedom Ride Rescue. We will often have a raffle and items for sale … You may notice a lot of partnerships with breweries and bottleshops: often these venues are donating a portion of the event’s bar proceeds to us, too!

(including what adoptable dogs are coming!)
Alumni (already adopted dogs) are encouraged to bring their people to events! Nothing is better than the moment a shelter dog recognizes the foster who loved them first: the full body tail wags and bouncing exuberance is WHY we do this!
Volunteers are ALWAYS needed during events and transporting fosters to/from them!
