Nearly 300 animal lovers gathered on September 23 for Tails by Twilight, Marin Humane‘s annual gala. Held on its Novato campus, guests enjoyed cocktails and a gourmet vegan meal while raising critical donations for the organization’s many programs through silent and live auctions. Auction items included cases of wine featuring a pet’s photo on each bottle, spa experiences, and hotel stays.

More than $600,000 was raised during the course of the evening, with more than half of that going toward the fund-a-need for youth programs.

Some guests brought their well-behaved furry friends along to join in the fun.

Marin Humane’s mission is to transform lives through exceptional animal care, humane education, and advocacy. The nonprofit operates a robust animal adoption program, offers training classes and veterinary services, and promotes community engagement through its events, youth programs and more. It also offers a variety of volunteer opportunities for animal lovers of all kinds.
