Guests will step into the opulent world of Mardi Gras Chic, where an evening of luxury and compassion awaits. The event commences at 7:00 p.m. with a vibrant cocktail hour, followed by an exquisite gourmet dinner, an exclusive caviar bar, and lively casino-style entertainment. Throughout the night, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in live and silent auctions, bidding on coveted luxury experiences and curated gift packages.

Adding to the festive ambiance, several of PAWS4you’s adorable, adoptable dogs will make special appearances, offering guests the chance to meet the very pets whose lives they are helping transform.

Supporting a Mission That Saves Lives

Mardi PAWS! is more than just an elegant soirée—it is a lifeline for South Florida’s at-risk animals. Every dollar raised goes directly to rescuing pets from high-kill shelters, providing urgent medical care, and ensuring that each animal finds a loving forever home

“Many animals arrive in dire health conditions; contributions help cover medical needs, vaccinations, and rehabilitation to prepare them for permanent homes. Our annual gala not only raises crucial funds but also educates the community about responsible pet ownership and the importance of animal rescue.”

Carol Caridad, Founder and Executive Director of PAWS4you

Under the esteemed leadership of Gala Chairs Kathy Cowan and Ann Rubino, alongside Ambassador Linda Gibb, and hosted by Emcees Cynthia Demos, Julie Guy, and Tamara G, the evening promises to be a perfect blend of sophistication and heartfelt generosity.
