Good mews cat people … Paw It Forward NYC is back (again)! >^..^<
Our IG pals @rukasthecat (aka Athina) and @thatcatblog (aka Patty) are helping to organize this fourth annual Paw It Forward fundraiser in New York City.
Paw It Forward began in 2015 simply as a venue to meet up with the humans behind those Instagram-famous cats. The turnout for the first event in New York City was so amazing and had so much momentum that it’s since turned into an annual cat-stravaganza for local cat rescues since its inception!
The team organizing Paw It Forward is made up of five cat-focused Instagrammers with a total social reach of over 500K followers. In addition to Athina and Patty the other 3 organizers are:
Thus far this event has raised over $18,000 for cat charities.
Here’s what attendees can expect:
- a goodie bag for all (value $35)
- 3 hour open bar (beer, wine, spirits)
- 10 raffle tickets guests can use to bid on prize baskets from sponsors. Additional raffle tickets will be available for purchase at the event.
- 100% of proceeds from ticket sales, raffle sales, and donations will benefit Flatbush Cats, a no-kill, nonprofit, all-volunteer rescue group in New York City
