You can support the campaign by making a one-time donation or donating an amount based on the distance Dakota runs.
Examples of donations per kilometer:
- €0.10/km → 100 km = €10
- €0.25/km → 100 km = €25
- €0.50/km → 100 km = €50
- €1/km → 100 km = €100
If you choose to donate per kilometer, you can make your donation after the race once Dakota’s final distance is confirmed.

All donations are made directly through the official donation channels of Balkan Dogs (Balkanin koirat ry), a registered Finnish nonprofit association. Donations go directly to the organization to support its animal welfare work.
Neither Dakota nor his support team receives or handles donation funds.
