24th Annual Compassion with Fashion Set For October 23, 2022

Written by: Arizona Humane Society
The Valley’s Most Beloved Charity Event, Compassion with Fashion, Raises Funds for 15,000 Homeless Pets

The Arizona Humane Society (AHS), along with Compassion with Fashion co-chairs, Lauren Smith and Leah Alexander (pictured above) invite Valley pet lovers to celebrate the 24th annual Compassion with Fashion. Compassion with Fashion, one of the Valley’s most beloved charity events, brings together Arizona’s most passionate animal advocates to raise money for, and find loving homes for, the more than 15,000 homeless pets AHS takes in each year through its Emergency Animal Medical Technicians™ or pet paramedics, trauma hospital, intensive care units and pets whose owners are no longer able to care for them.

This year’s Alice in Wonderland-themed luncheon event – presented by PetSmart Charities®, the leading funder of animal welfare in North America and proud Phoenix-based organization – consists of incredible silent and live auction items as well as a designer fashion show presented by ASU’s Herberger Institute for Design and the Art. This year’s event will also honor AHS’ dear friend, longtime donor, devoted Board Member and Foster Hero, Ann Siner, as our Queen of Barks. And of course, guests will go mad for the 16 adoptable pets who strut their stuff from the runway and into the hearts of their new family members.
