The Humane Society for Tacoma & Pierce County is hosting its fifth annual ‘Poorly Drawn Pets’ fundraiser. Last year, the fun event raised nearly $30,800 for pets in need at the shelter. For a donation of $30, shelter volunteers will put their own artistic spin on your submitted photo of your fur baby. The virtual event starts at 7 a.m. on Jan 23. The photos can be submitted on the shelter's Facebook page in the comment section of a designated post for the event.
"Our artists don't promise perfection, but they guarantee unique portraits that leave a lasting impression," says Ashley Taulbee, chief philanthropy officer at the Humane Society for Tacoma & Pierce County. "Last year, we created over 1,500 masterpieces. This fifth annual event promises even more, with the most hilarious masterpieces yet!" Photo submissions will be accepted until the shelter reaches its goal of $25,000.
