Paws for Love is presented by the Paws for Love Foundation. Proceeds from this gala event greatly benefit the animals of Sonoma County, the North Bay, and beyond. The Paws for Love Foundation provides resources and funding to shelters, rescue groups, and individuals dedicated to improving the health, welfare, and adoptability of unwanted and abused animals. Funds raised by this event are also used to rehabilitate adoptable animals by providing necessary medical treatment, food and training for animals in foster care programs.

We are now in the process of gearing up for our FEBRUARY 11, 2012 Paws for Love benefit. For more information about donating items or services to our PAWS FOR LOVE auction, please email either Ellyn Boone (phone 209-795-4575) or Cindy Goede (phone 707-544-3974). If you or your company donate $250 or more to this event, you will receive two free tickets to our next PAWS FOR LOVE Gala. You will also receive the Paws for Love Newsletter. Please note that your donations must be received before the cutoff date of December 31, 2011 in order to receive your free tickets.

Open your heart and home to adoptable animals waiting for you!
