PAWS BEACH PARTY

Dressed in Hawaiian shirts, floral sundresses, and leis—and that’s just the canine guests—PAWS Chicago’s 22nd Annual Beach Party brought hundreds of pet lovers to Offshore Rooftop at Navy Pier to raise lifesaving funds for homeless pets. The event, which grossed over $400,000, will help the city’s largest No Kill humane organization continue its mission to end the needless euthanasia of cats and dogs and provide critical care for homeless and at-risk pets. Guests enjoyed a lively evening of cocktails, dinner, dancing, and a spirited live auction—plus portraits by a pet artist, an aura photo booth, and ice cream treats for both people and pups, courtesy of Ida’s Artisan Ice Cream and Koko’s Kitchen. pawschicago.org
