FUR BALL
The Drake Hotel • November 13, 2015
Every dollar raised from the
14TH ANNUAL
FUR BALL
enables PAWS Chicago
to continue life-saving work.
PAWS Chicago (Pets Are Worth Saving) is the city’s largest No Kill humane organization.
PAWS Chicago (Pets Are Worth Saving) is a national model in animal sheltering, committed to bringing an end to the killing of
homeless cats and dogs. As Chicagoland’s largest No Kill shelter, it has helped to reduce the number of homeless pets killed
in the city by 77 percent since its founding in 1997.
In 2014, PAWS Chicago found homes for 5,952 homeless pets and performed 18,290 spay and neuter surgeries through its
Lurie Clinic and GusMobile Spay/Neuter Van. These two medical resources give PAWS Chicago the ability to provide free
and low-cost spay/neuter surgeries, vaccinations and humane education to under-resourced families and neighborhoods
that need the most help in controlling its pet population.
Chicago’s premier pet-friendly black tie gala will draw more than 700 guests, many escorted by their canine companions.
Lucky dogs in attendance will be treated to a doggie buffet, animal communicator and dog spa, complete with an animal
masseuse. Their human companions will delight in the silent and live auctions with one-of-a-kind items, raffle, dancing and
dinner buffet.
As a sponsor at any level, this unique marketing opportunity includes:
• Access to a highly desirable target audience – we anticipate 700 urban pet lovers from the North Shore, Lincoln Park, the Gold Coast,
Lakeview, and other lakefront neighborhoods.
• Extensive media exposure ‑ Recently, PAWS Chicago has received national media coverage from The Today Show, Nightline and
the Oprah Show. PAWS Chicago also regularly receives local coverage from ABC, CBS, NBC, WGN, FOX, Chicago Tribune, Chicago
Sun‑Times, SPLASH A Chicago Sun-Times Publication, Chicago magazine, Today’s Chicago Woman, Chicago Scene, Skyline, TimeOut
