Hawaii Island Humane Society’s 18th annual Tropical Paws benefit event is set for 6 p.m. Friday, March 28, at the Four Seasons Hualalai Resort.

Tropical Paws has an established reputation for abundant silent and live auctions, a cocktail reception with furry friends to meet and greet, Four Seasons-style buffet dinner and entertainment and dancing.

Proceeds from the benefit help support Hawaii Island Humane Society’s Second Chance Fund and Spay/Neuter Community Assistance Program. The Second Chance Fund provides medical care and treatment for abused animals while they recuperate and become ready for adoption. The goal of the Spay/Neuter Community Assistance Program is to end pet overpopulation on the Big Island through increased spays and neuters and community education.

Tickets are $125 per person or $2,000 for a reserved table of 10 and will be available beginning in early February at HIHS’s Keaau, Waimea and Kona shelters and online at www.HIHS.org. A portion of each table sale is tax deductible, as allowed by law.

Visit HIHS.org or call 329-8002 for information regarding donation and sponsorship opportunities.
