PAW Royale: Humane Society of Sarasota County's Signature Luncheon Supporting Homeless Animals
On Friday, March 13, 2026—Humane Society of Sarasota County invites you to its premier fundraising event, PAW Royale, at the iconic Ritz-Carlton, Sarasota.
Inspired by the elegance of Old Florida, this year's theme evokes timeless coastal glamour. Guests will begin the day at 11am with sumptuous cocktails, curated local vendors, stylish photo opportunities—and of course, the chance to snuggle a few adorable puppies and kittens before the program begins. At 12pm, the ballroom doors open for a lively luncheon with fine dining, decadent dessert, entertainment, and heartfelt stories that showcase the lifesaving mission you make possible.
We are thrilled to announce our PAW Royale Co-Chairs, Kimberly Marlow and Renee Phinney—two extraordinary women whose passion for animals and dedication to our mission make them the perfect leaders. Vibrant, connected, and deeply committed to saving lives... Kimberly and Renee embody the spirit of this event, and we are so grateful for their support.
In 2025, PAWS raised more than $320,000 to support homeless pets. With your partnership, we can go even further—saving more lives and moving closer to a No-Kill Florida.
It's sure to be an afternoon of elegance and an impact that lasts a lifetime. Join us for PAW Royale. SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES ARE AVAILABLE NOW!
