Mercy for Animals NYC Gala
Mercy for Animals, a fantastic animal rights organization, is hosting its Celebrating Compassion Gala in NYC on January 23rd. I for one have already bought my tickets and can’t wait to live it up with other activists. For those of you who have not been in the Prince George Ballroom, it’s exquisite. There is going to be live music, vegan dinner, wine and spirits, a silent auction and an awards ceremony.
What do I love most about animal rights galas such as this one? It’s an opportunity to be surrounded by people who think and feel like I do. Nothing you eat has to be questioned and you can start a conversation with any person in the room and have something in common. Unless you work in AR, this is probably not an experience you have in your day to day life. Even for me, working in AR, it’s still a welcomed and valued experience. Plus, you get to fancy yourself up for a night and who doesn’t love that! I already have my formal attire picked out.
The tickets are $75 each which in my opinion is pretty darn reasonable considering the cost of many other galas I have wanted to attend but couldn’t for financial reasons.
Two of my favorite places are sponsoring the event. Cow Jones Industrial and Moo Shoes. I’m volunteering and helping with the silent auction so I can tell you that the silent auction is going to be amazing too.
Hope to see you there!
