Why:  This nationwide event includes
hundreds of shelters and helps thousands of animals find their loving, forever
home each year. In addition, each successful adoption will earn the shelter a
generous donation from Maddie’s Fund, a family foundation working to achieve a
no-kill nation by providing solutions to the most challenging issues facing the
animal welfare community through its grant giving, hands-on animal care, and
research and education. The money earned during this event is essential to the
shelter’s operating budget for the almost 7,000 animals that the shelter cares
for each year.
