My friend Emily Tanen’s non-profit rescue group, Project Pet, is throwing a holiday party in which all proceeds go towards saving animals in city shelters – specifically pit bulls – from euthanasia.
Emily also works in the New Hope department of Manhattan Animal Care and Control and never leaves work without taking at least a few dogs out of the shelter with her to be marketed, coddled and adored by animal lovers who attend the fundraiser.
Happy’s Holiday Hour will take place at Von, a great space on Bleecker Street on Thursday, December 17th from 6 – 9 p.m. I went to Project Pet’s fundraiser at Von last month and it was a blast! I am hoping to get out of a prior engagement to come out and support Emily and the animals she works so tirelessly to save, and hope you will, too!
Below is a photo of some of my rescue friends at Project Pet’s last fundraiser. From top left going clockwise is the host of the party, Emily, followed by Christina, Jen, myself and Katherine.
Good times raising money for shelter pets.
I know this group works tirelessly to help needy and abandoned animals. Come to the fundraiser and bring a bunch of friends along. It's a great way to spend a pre-holiday evening!!!
