First fundraiser since the pandemic a success for homeless animals in our community!

On Monday, January 25th Gallagher’s 527 in Mandeville hosted Fine Wines for Canines, a charity dinner and wine pairing to benefit the homeless animals of Northshore Humane Society. The limited capacity and socially distant evening included a five-course dinner, each course with an exquisite wine pairing. Patrons also took advantage of a cash bar before dinner and bid on several silent auction pieces all to benefit the no-kill rescue and community veterinary clinic.

“This was the first fundraising event since the start of the pandemic so we are extremely grateful for everyone who attended and participated,” said Northshore Humane Society CEO, Scott Bernier. “It was also great to catch up with supporters of our organization who we have not seen (except virtually) for quite some time,” he added.

This evening and future Fine Wines events will not only help the homeless animals of Northshore Humane Society, they will assist local restaurants at this critical time following a pandemic.
