Santa Barbara Humane invites the Santa Maria community to its second annual Wild West Fest, 5-9 p.m. Saturday, March 22 at the Santa Maria Elks Lodge.
Funds raised through Wild West Fest will benefit Santa Barbara Humane’s Santa Maria campus, helping place pets into loving homes and providing critical resources to the community, such as low-cost or free veterinary care and affordable dog training.
In 2024, more than 2,000 animals were adopted from the organization’s Santa Maria campus. However, Santa Barbara Humane offers other assistance for animals in addition to adoptions.
Last year, the organization provided $379,949 worth of low-cost or free veterinary care to more than 15,400 animals in the Santa Maria Valley area and offered affordable dog training to scores of local families.
Featured at the Wild West Fest will be
● Western-themed dinner
● Signature drinks
● Auctions
● Community connection
“We are so thrilled to be able to throw our second annual Wild West Fest. It is truly a celebration of our incredible community here,” said Paige Van Tuyl, chief philanthropy officer at Santa Barbara Humane. “Every ticket purchased and every dollar raised will help us provide essential care to animals and their families in Santa Maria.”
