The gala will benefit Panacea Animal Wellness Sanctuary (PAWS) a non- profit organization that provides a loving sanctuary for animals at risk of homelessness and/or euthanasia. Dr. Eva Decozio-Bush and Michele Elek founded PAWS in 2009 after volunteering together at numerous animal welfare organizations and finding more needed to be done. PAWS AZ has helped more than 600 animals including Michael Bidwill’s (President, AZ Cardinals) beloved dog, Reilly from euthanasia. Reilly now goes to work with Mr. Bidwill at the AZ Cardinals offices every day. Reilly will be making a special guest appearance along with Nicole Bidwill and her dog that will be in the fashion show.
The beautiful Kristy Siefkin and spunky Corey McCloskey from FOX channel 10 are named to host the event along with red carpet host Lyndsie Lou James from season 16 of ABC’s hit show “The Bachelor”. Local celebrities and professional athletes will also be in attendance. All of which will be available for pictures and autographs. Live entertainment from up and coming artist Jessica Cates will also be a part of this furrrrtastic occasion.
Dinner, dancing, shopping and an exclusive fashion show are among the night’s festivities. The fashion show will feature the trendy apparel of local AZ designer, Carine W and local AZ boutiques: Alley Katz, Origami Owl, Bath Junkie, Glam Squad, Flora Apothecary and Amy Mac Jewelry. Dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens up for adoption will accompany the models wearing fashions from “Oh My Dog“. There will be a phenomenal silent auction and “pop up” style shopping.
