President’s Message

Thank you for visiting the PAWS website, we appreciate your interest in supporting our mission to help homeless animals in our community.

 

I am honored to serve as the President of PAWS (Pets Are Worth Saving) for the 2025–2026 fundraising season. Founded in 1997, this dedicated auxiliary of the Humane Society of Broward County has worked tirelessly to raise awareness about and significant funds to help local animals in need.

 

Throughout the years, PAWS members have remained passionate advocates for animal welfare, and I’m proud to be part of such an inspiring and hardworking group. It’s truly a privilege to lead this incredible organization and to carry on the tradition of giving back—while building lasting friendships with inspiring women – and having fun along the way!

 

What began as a single annual event has grown into an active calendar of fundraisers and member socials. Thanks to the efforts of the committees and generosity of our loyal supporters, PAWS raised over ONE MILLION DOLLARS last year —100% of which directly benefits the Humane Society of Broward County and the animals who depend on us.

 

I invite you to join us as we kick off another exciting year. COME JOIN US! Your involvement—whether as a member, donor, or sponsor—will make a real difference here in our community so we can continue to create brighter futures for thousands of animals in our care. Thank you!

 

With heartfelt appreciation,

Liz Brown, PAWS President
