WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?
The best thing about March Muttness is that all funds raised will stay in the El Paso area to help the Humane Society of El Paso with their mission of providing shelter, food, medical treatment, adoption services and more to vulnerable animals in our community. That alone is reason enough to donate because our area pet population needs the help that the Humane Society provides them. Beginning at 9 a.m. today, you can make a donation to support the Humane Society at our event donation page. The event’s overall tournament, click here to go to it, will show brackets and update fundraising totals.

Let’s go all tails in, El Paso! You can get more information by contacting Genesis Juarez at gjuarez@hselpaso.org or (915) 532-6971.
