On Saturday, April 6, 2024, Rio Grande Valley Humane Society (RGVHS) held its 6th Annual Wine & Whiskers Gala in Mission, Texas. This event is its largest fundraiser of the year.

More than 6,000 dogs and cats in need pass through RGVHS in search of loving homes each year, and it is only through generous donors that it can assist these animals on their way to safety. Contributions make it possible for RGVHS to address pet overpopulation and prevent the spread of disease in the RGV by providing spay and neuter services to shelter pets, as well as food, veterinary care, immunizations, and other medications to vulnerable animals that may otherwise wind up lost, stray, sick, and suffering on our streets. Support is not just a one-time contribution but a lifeline for these animals. Continued giving, fostering, and adopting is a crucial first step towards success.
