A Record Breaking Affair
On Thursday, September 18th, over 200 PAW Team supporters came together for PAW Team’s annual signature gala and celebration, PawPalooza. The event, our most important single fundraiser of the year, was a record breaking affair for Portland Animal Welfare Team.
Because of the steadfast support from our donors and their belief in this critical work PAW Team raised a jaw-dropping $138,432!
We set out to raise - what we thought was a lofty goal - $75,000 to support our programs and work throughout the year.
WOW, we are blown away by your support and generosity! Thank you all for making PawPalooza 2025 our most successful single fundraiser in PAW Team history.
Your commitment to PAW Team makes all of our work possible and without you, there is no PAW Team. In a time when many social and direct services are seeing their budgets cut, you showed up to ensure PAW Team is not only here now, but growing to meet the increased need and help even more pets in our community.
THANK YOU TO OUR 2025 SPONSORS & IN-KIND DONORS.
Without their support, PawPalooza would not be possible.
