You helped us make history raising over $370,000 for the animals at Fur Ball 2024!

The Peninsula SPCA’s 16th annual Fur Ball gala made history by raising over $370,000 for the pets and programs of the Peninsula SPCA. Held on March 9th, 2024 at the Hampton Roads Convention Center, this year’s event, A Walk in the Park, had over 400 guests with nearly 50 pets joining the celebration.

Guests enjoyed browsing silent auction items during cocktail hour and getting their portraits taken by Bob Harper Photography. Four-legged guests were treated to tasty treats at the Muttini Bar, made possible by Carol & Frank, Pearson Toyota Scion, Colonial Webb, Towne Bank, Old Point, and VCA Animal Hospital, before strutting their stuff in the pet parade. The live auction was also a highlight of the night, with co-spokespets Scooby Doo (and his sister, Sophie) and Mr. Dupre battling it out yet again before a donation match offer resulted in another tie. The Peninsula SPCA is very grateful for the generosity of Cathy McQuade and Dr. Kian Kaz! This will be an event to remember, and the local band, Request Station, had guests dancing the night away in celebration.
