WHAT A NIGHT for homeless senior pets at last night’s 2023 Silver Paws Gala – Happy Trails!
We had so much fun with a sold out crowd, embracing our western theme for the event. The food at Pinstripes was so yummy – their crew last night was amazing! Everyone enjoyed an exciting Live Auction and paddle raise with the always fun Jim Miller. And we all loved the live music of The Acoustic Generation! Our senior dogs visited with our guests, reminding everyone just how important each of their lives are and why senior pets deserve second chances, too. What an incredible evening!
It was a record-breaking night, raising over $210,000 for Young at Heart! Photos are still coming in, so we’ll post an album later this week.
A huge THANK YOU to our volunteers and staff for working their tails off to make the night perfect, to our very generous supporters that make our work possible, and to our very special sponsors that believe in helping senior pets too – we can’t do this without any of you!
