Join us for the 2026 DAWS Making a Difference Signature Gala Fundraiser!

Each year, our Gala brings together animal lovers and advocates to support our mission of responsible pet guardianship and the humane treatment of animals. Your generosity makes it possible for us to provide safe shelter, care, and love to homeless pets in need.

Our goal for this year's event is to raise $210,000 to support the animals in our care. Join us on Thursday, October 8th at the Ethan Allen Hotel in Danbury, CT for an inspiring evening featuring exciting auctions, delicious food, music and, of course, a warm welcome from a few of our furry friends.
