After a two-year pause brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Hawaiʻi Island Humane Society’s 24th Annual Tropical Paws benefit gala returns on Friday, March 25 at the Four Seasons Resort Hualalai.

Tropical Paws is Kona’s premier fundraising benefit, featuring adoptable pets of the Hawaiʻi Island Humane Society. The event will include silent and live auctions, gourmet food and drinks, and special presentations to highlight the society’s lifesaving work.  Guy Hagi and Kim Gennaula will serve as the evening’s emcees.  Shelter animals will also be on hand to meet and mingle with.

Single tickets are now on sale for $235 while tickets for a table of 8 are priced at $3000.  Sponsor packages are also available.  Visit HIHS.org for more information and to purchase tickets.
