Submissions for the Irvine Animal Care Center Photo Fundraiser Open August 1

The Irvine Animal Care Center is seeking submissions of photogenic pets for the annual Photo Fundraiser, which helps provide top-tier care and life-saving programs at the center. To enter, participants can submit favorite photos of their pet online at irvineanimals.org/photofundraiser and encourage family and friends to vote.

All eligible photos with a minimum of five votes by the end of the contest will be included in the 2024 Irvine Animal Care Center wall calendar. The top 13 winners will have their pets featured with a full-page photo in the calendar. Each entrant will receive a print calendar. Additional copies will be available for sale online.

Photo submissions are accepted from August 1 through 31. The entry fee is $25 per photo. Voting is online and open to the general public from August 1 through 31. Votes are $1 each. To enter pet photos and/or cast a vote, visit irvineanimals.org/photofundraiser.

All proceeds benefit the center’s Enhanced Care, Foster Care, and Third Chance for Pets programs.

For more information about the Photo Fundraiser and the center’s programs, contact the Irvine Animal Care Center at 949-724-7740 or visit irvineanimals.org.
