The Denim & Diamonds Gala was a memorable sold-out event, attracting nearly 300 attendees to celebrate GRIN's "Diamonds in the Ruff." Guests enjoyed dinner, drinks, and laughter, with opportunities to bid on auction items and purchase raffle tickets to raise funds for our organization. GRIN ambassadors Killian, Greta, Rosie, and Heidi also added to the fun with their presence.!

The event raised over $41,000 for GRIN, making the event a remarkable success for our organization! With our organization spending over $250,000 a year on veterinary care alone, this will go a ways in ensuring we can continue to meet the medical needs of the dogs coming into our care.

We would like to extend a special thanks to those who helped contribute to the gala's success
