Philly Loves PAWS: Supporting a No-Kill City

Philly Loves PAWS is an annual fundraising event that unites over 100 participating businesses to support PAWS, Philadelphia's leading rescue partner. A diverse array of restaurants, shops, and service providers throughout the city contribute at least 10% of their proceeds to help make Philadelphia a no-kill city, where every healthy and treatable pet is guaranteed a home. Tito's Handmade Vodka is the proud sponsor of this year's event.

PAWS: Compassionate Care for Philadelphia's Pets
