   As the Senior Manager of Events, I oversaw The Fur Ball in May, HSSV\'s largest fundraiser. This sold-out event, held at PayPal Park in May, welcomed 650 guests, along with over 100 canine companions. The event raised more than $2 million, exceeding our initial goal, and became the largest The Fur Ball in history.In addition to the Fur Ball, we are currently planning other donor events, including our Paws for Celebration thank-you event for our top donors, as well as smaller donor events scheduled for the fall.Working closely with the Philanthropy team and Senior Leadership, I am responsible for managing donor events in the coming year, with attendance ranging from 20 to more than 600 participants.I am in the initial stages of planning Mutual Rescue\'s film festival scheduled for February of next year.
