SATURDAY FEB 28, 2015 |
On May 1 the Humane Society of Sarasota County will host its 9th Annual Paws on the Catwalk Luncheon at the Ritz-Carlton. Filled with fashion, fun and fur, this fabulous event celebrates HSSC’s work to help our area’s precious four-legged friends. Shelter pets will be dressed to the nines as they greet arriving guests and this year’s fashion show will feature several four-legged models from the shelter strutting their stuff on the catwalk. Behind the entertainment, glitz and glamour is a very serious and strategic mission. HSSC’s Pet Pantry Program provides over 30,000 pounds of pet food to families in need each year and its volunteers log over 14,000 volunteer hours every year. HSSC also hosts a Fur Fun Summer Camp for kids ages 7-12 who have a blast while learning about shelter animals and the importance of humane education. The focus all of these efforts is a goal: the Humane Society of Sarasota County hopes to find homes for at least 2000 homeless pets this year.
