YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – Pet lovers across Yuma County attended the Humane Society of Yuma’s (HSOY) 19th Annual Fur Ball event over the weekend.
The event took place Saturday at the Pivot Point Conference Center from 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and the theme was Whiskers in Wonderland.
Annette Lagunas, Executive Director for HSOY, shares how this event provided animal safety.
“This event really is all about saving lives. It’s about spaying and neutering, it’s about providing medical care that they need, and it’s about finding homes and putting animals in their forever loving home. That’s what it’s all about,” Lagunas explained.
The Yuma Orchestra Association served as the live entertainment during the event, and attendees participated in a live and silent auction for a variety of items, including an indoor smoker and a getaway to the Great Wolf Lodge.
According to Lagunas, this event raised $2 million for the past 19 years.
