Woods Humane Society launches 2026 calendar fundraiser contest
Contest runs Sept. 1-30 with free registration
– Woods Humane Society announced its Pets of the Year Calendar Contest, open for public entry from Sept. 1 through Sept. 30.
The contest is free to enter. Participants can nominate their pets by creating a page, uploading a photo, and asking friends and family to vote by donating to their page. The top ten fundraisers will be featured in the 2026 pet-themed print calendar. Winners also receive four calendars and will be featured in a 2026 social media post, email, and website post.
All participants who raise at least $25 will win a calendar and have their pet’s photo included on the collage page.
Woods will unveil the 2026 calendar and announce the winners at the Wiggle Waggle Fall Festival on Oct. 25, where calendars will be available for purchase.
“After enjoying these pet photos and stories on our wall calendar each month for the past two years, we can’t wait to see all of the beautiful nominations celebrating the human-animal bond that come in during this fun contest,” said Woods CEO Emily L’Heureux. “Not only is this such a great chance to honor a beloved family pet, but it is also a unique way to help homeless pets who are still looking for a family. Every vote cast by donating to pets’ pages makes a difference for dogs and cats in need at Woods Humane Society.”
The contest runs until midnight on Sept. 30. Details about contest rules, prizes, and guidelines are available at www.WoodsHumane.org/Contest.
Woods Humane Society is located at 875 Oklahoma Ave. in San Luis Obispo and 2300 Ramona Rd. in Atascadero. The shelters are open daily from 12-5 p.m., with adoption hours from 12-4 p.m. For more information, visit www.WoodsHumane.org or call (805) 543-9316.
