About Last Year's Fur Ball

October 12, 2008
Molly Darcy's, Danbury CT

Thanks for making this evening such a big success!

We would like to thank the 125 animal lovers who came out to support The Animal Center’s first annual Fur Ball  fundraiser on October 12, 2008 at Molly Darcy’s in Danbury. We are very grateful for your help in making the event a tremendous success as well as a ton of fun (as you can see from the pictures below)!  

The Fur Ball and Raffle helped to raise over $8,000 in much needed funds to help support The Animal Center's Feline Rescue & Adoption Programs.

We wish to thank Fur Ball Event Organizers Jeanine Scotti, Gudrun Pechtold, and Jennifer Ingrao—without whom this event would not have been possible. Thank you for your great ideas, amazing energy and hard work. And to the dozens of volunteers (and their friends and family) who helped promote the Fur Ball and sell Raffle tickets. We are very grateful for your support!

Thanks, too, to our Fur Ball advertisers and donors (below):
