Our 4th Annual Gala Evening of Compassion netted over $70,000 for our animals, which represents a little more than one month's operating expenses for our many programs and services. Thanks to all who attended and donated in support of this important event! See photos from the evening here!

We appreciate the support of our sponsors who have helped to make this event possible. If you need services provided by these local businesses, we hope you will consider supporting the organizations that support our animals! Thank you!
Thursday, May 1st was the date of this exciting fundraising dinner. The evening began at 5:30pm for a cocktail hour, with light hors d'oeuvres, a cash bar and time for guests to mingle with some of the animals available for adoption.
Dinner will began at 6:30pm and featured the Volunteer of the Year Award presented by NH Governor John Lynch, heartwarming stories of lives saved through the League's important programs, and an address from our Keynote Speaker, Mr. Michael Boston, Director of the Corinth-Alcorn County Humane Society, our sister humane society that is partnering with us to save the lives of adult dogs and puppies from the Mississippi area shelter. It is not too late to make a tax-deductible donation in support of this event, which will be much appreciated and help us to continue our mission of saving lives of pets and improving the lives of people.
And... back by popular demand was the much loved Fashion Show! This year our models highlighted the fashions of Alapage Clothing & Accessories.  Walking the "catwalk" with the models were past alumni of the League as well as a few adoptable canines. Our models were much loved members from our ARL Community, our volunteers, our sponsors, our staff and our donors, as well as special "celebrity model", Dr. Susan Lynch, the First Lady of NH.
 A huge thank you to Affinity Salon in Amherst for donating their hair and makeup services for our models.
