AnimalPalooza is holding its first annual food, toy, and fund drive Nov. 16 through Dec. 6 to benefit 18 animal shelters and rescues in Southern Indiana and Western Kentucky during a historically slow season of giving for these nonprofit organizations.
Donations may be placed in collection boxes throughout Evansville and the surrounding area. Animal shelters and rescue facilities are always in need of pet food, toys, bedding, Dawn
dish washing liquid, paper towels and bleach, among many other items. Find a full listing of needed items at www.animalpalooza.net.
Monetary donations also are needed, and may be made online at the AnimalPalooza website.
“We are very excited to announce that AnimalPalooza will match the total donations we raise online, up to $2,000. So we encourage everyone to go to our Go Fund Me link at www.gofundme.com/un95bvms to make a donation, then share the link with friends and online contacts,†said Melissa Mauser, AnimalPalooza Vice President and Marketing & PR Coordinator. “Every donation, no matter how big or small, counts. We saw what our community can do during our AnimalPalooza Benefit and Music Festival in September and because of that, we’re confident this food and fund drive will also be a big success. We’re continually grateful for the outpouring of support and generosity from so many people and businesses in the tri-state.â€
The Santa Paws event will conclude with a celebration on Sunday, December 6th at Lamasco Bar & Grill on West Franklin Street. The event will feature popular local bands, food, door prizes and family fun from 2 pm to 7 pm.
