The Power of the Paw – 2026 Annual Auction and Benefit

Join us on November 15th beginning at 11 am at the Inn at Villanova for our major fundraiser of the year.

The event will feature the always popular Duck Pond, two Wheels of Fortune and our amazing baskets!  There are so many unique ones this year, we know you will find something you love to bid on. The highlight of the day will be stories from our volunteers, a retirement ceremony and thank you for our retiring therapy animals and a video which details our bittersweet year.  We hope that you will be able to join us.

As you know, all proceeds from the Auction and Benefit go toward our pet therapy programs which continue to grow throughout all age levels.  We are so proud of what we can provide to help so many people see the “Power of the Paw.” If you can’t make to the event, we hope you would consider bidding on a basket or just making a donation.  To purchase tickets or to bid on items http://pawpower2026.givesmart.com
