A Dozen Donuts That Can Help Save Las Vegas Dogs in Crisis

Las Vegas K9 Crew Rescue has launched a Krispy Kreme Digital Dozens fundraiser, and it’s one of the simplest ways locals can help dogs in crisis right now. Every dozen purchased through the rescue’s unique link sends 50 percent of the sale directly to their lifesaving work — no scheduling, no pickup lines, just a digital code you redeem at any Krispy Kreme location nationwide.

For workplaces, team meetings, teachers, service pros, or anyone who enjoys surprising coworkers with treats, each box becomes more than a snack. It becomes funding for emergency medical care, safe foster placements, food, transport, and supplies for dogs who have nowhere else to go.

Why This Fundraiser Matters Right Now

Earlier this year, we covered the launch of Las Vegas K9 Crew Rescue and the urgent shelter crisis pushing local rescuers to step up in new ways. The valley is experiencing record intake, overwhelmed shelters, and rising desert dumping — all creating a dangerous environment for at-risk dogs. Rather than retell the full story, we encourage readers to explore our feature on the rescue’s origin and the scope of Las Vegas’s animal welfare emergency. The short version: this fundraiser arrives at a time when every dollar counts.

The rescue’s founding team, long known for responding to difficult calls across the city, now relies on public support to provide medical care and secure fosters for dogs who would otherwise remain in unsafe conditions. That’s why the Digital Dozens campaign matters — it transforms an everyday purchase into critical support.

How the Krispy Kreme Digital Dozens Program Works

Krispy Kreme’s Digital Dozens program is simple, fast, and built for modern fundraising:

• Purchase a dozen through Las Vegas K9 Crew Rescue’s fundraising link
• Receive a digital code instantly to your email
• Redeem the code at any Krispy Kreme location nationwide
• Fifty percent of your purchase goes straight to the rescue

There’s no expiration pressure, no requirement to pick up all boxes at once, and no logistics for buyers to manage. Supporters can order donuts for an office meeting, a class reward, a team celebration, or as a treat for friends and family — each with the added impact of helping a dog in need.
The rescue’s current goal is 100 dozens. As of today, 11 dozens have been purchased, leaving 89 to go.

Where the Funds Go

While a full breakdown of Las Vegas K9 Crew Rescue’s mission is available in our earlier article, here are the core needs your donut purchase helps support:

• Emergency veterinary care for injured or abandoned dogs
• Food, crates, and supplies for new foster placements
• Transport for desert-dumped or crisis-stranded animals
• Vaccines, microchips, and medical exams
• Building out the rescue’s 24-hour foster response network

These are the expenses that arrive before adoption fees ever come into play — the ones rescues must cover upfront to save lives.

A Simple Way to Make a Real Difference

Not everyone can foster, volunteer, or take on emergency calls at 2 a.m. But almost everyone can buy a dozen donuts for their workplace, friends, or family — and that small act goes further than people realize.

For the dogs soon depending on Las Vegas K9 Crew Rescue, it can mean medical care, safety, and a chance to start again.
