Ms Griffiths runs a business in Woonona called Miyow & Barkley designer pet accessories.
But her passion is caring for animals and she is one of three directors of the Zambi Wildlife Retreat, an animal welfare centre which rescues, rehabilitates, rehomes and shelters many species.
The fitness and boot camp fundraiser, from 8am to 9.30am, is being hosted by Dye, and Organ is the auctioneer.
"I am one of three directors of our sanctuary Zambi Wildlife Retreat and we are run by volunteers and survive only on the generosity of public donations," Ms Griffiths said.
"While our focus is on exotic animals needing retirement from zoo breeding programs, circus and private ownership, we also provide care and shelter to domestics, farm animals and native wildlife.
"Emergency rescue is available across all species."
Ms Griffiths said the retreat was managed by highly qualified staff and volunteers who ensured the health, safety and dignity of all animals in their care.
LOTL Rescue, established in 2012, is the founding company of the Zambi Wildlife Retreat which runs as a registered charity in NSW.
