SPECIAL HOLIDAY APPEAL

Thanks to your generous support the Alliance has achieved

MANY

major accomplishments for the animals over the years and we take great satisfaction in the numerous animal protection laws that we are responsible for enacting.

But the fight is ongoing and animal welfare doesn't take a holiday break.

We ask you to please take a moment and read about our accomplishments while considering our Holiday Appeal.

Did you know that OPEN YOUR HEART represents a significant source of funding for our legislative work every year?

This coming OPEN YOUR HEART GALA gives a nostalgic nod to the iconic Woodstock Festival celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2019. Things may have been "far out" back then but at the Alliance we are ever mindful of the present day challenges facing the animals .

The evening is open to all animal lovers where you can enjoy hors d'oeuvres, spirits, buffet dinner, our "signature" mashed potato bar and gourmet desserts. This year we're excited to offer a number of fun activities for guests including tarot card readings, pet sketching, and our silent and live auctions. We promise you an evening worth your time filled with mostly lighthearted banter, fellowship, catching up with and catching up on, music and good eats and drinks.

Formal AND groovy attire are BOTH cool!

Complimentary Valet Parking

Pssst! If you can't make our fundraiser but would like to donate an item to the Auction, go to our Amazon Wish List!
