About Us
The Wilmington Fur Ball Committee is pleased to announce the Sixth Annual Wilmington Fur Ball, a black tie, red carpet fund raising Gala to be held December 3rd, 2011 at the Cape Fear Country Club. Proceeds from the event will support the rescue and adoption efforts of two non-profit organizations: Pender County Humane Society and Adopt-An-A.N.G.E.L.
Last year’s event was an evening to be remembered for the over 150 attending guests. Through the generosity of our supporters and donors, we have been able to net over $85,000 in five years which has been used to save the lives of many homeless animals in our community as well as help Pender County Humane Society in the construction of their new Shelter.
Our two focus charities are Pender County Humane Society and Adopt-An-A.N.G.E.L., both of which are 501(c) (3) charitable organizations. Your donations are tax deductible; any contribution over $100.00 will be accompanied by a letter of thanks as a receipt for your tax purposes.
Pender County Humane Society
PCHS is a volunteer based non-profit, no-kill animal rescue organization funded by donations, memberships and fees. They are dedicated to improving the lives of homeless and unwanted animals by providing shelter and medical care while finding loving and responsible permanent homes. They work to prevent cruelty and overpopulation among dogs and cats as well as to help assist and educate the public. Please visit www.penderhumane.org to learn more.
Adopt-An-A.N.G.E.L. of New Hanover County
This is a charitable outreach organization dedicated to assisting municipal shelters by providing satellite adoption fairs to increase adoption, especially to those animals whose time has “run out” in a traditional shelter. In addition, Adopt-An-A.N.G.E.L. educates pet owners about the necessity of spaying and neutering by raising the awareness about the plight of homeless animals in our community. More information may be obtained by visiting their website at www.adoptanangel.net.
In these times of economic uncertainty, your donations can do double duty as both local, targeted advertising and as a contribution to help the homeless and unwanted animals of our area.
We thank you in advance for your willingness to help!
The Wilmington Fur Ball is a 501(c) (3) not-for-profit Charitable Organization.
