The Fourteenth Annual Paws for a Cause Charity Night & Silent Auction will be held on Thursday, October 3, 2019 from 5-8PM at Monument City Brewing Company. This event will benefit The Buddy Foundation of Maryland, Community Cats of Maryland, and Furry Friends Network.
This year’s event will feature guest bartenders, brewery tours, animals brought by the charities, a silent auction, raffles, games, a food truck, & more!
The Buddy Foundation of Maryland provides the financial and emotional support necessary to prevent euthanasia and/or surrender of a canine family member due to the high cost of urgent veterinary care.
Paws for a Cause is raising money for The Buddy Foundation of Maryland to help them provide financial support to 3-4 families with pets in need of urgent medical care.
Community Cats of Maryland is dedicated to helping feral cat caretakers pursue TNR. Community Cats of MD provides resources, information, and support to Maryland residents who are caring for outdoor/feral cats. They offer educational workshops about feral cat management and TNR and they run monthly low-cost spay/neuter clinics for feral cats.
Paws for a Cause is raising money to help support Community Cats of MD’s efforts to relocate, vaccinate, and medically treat the feral cats living at the former site of Bethlehem Steel. As many as fifty cats could still be living there.
Paws for a Cause also gives back annually to the Hope Fund of Furry Friends Network, Inc. as a token of appreciation for bringing Fenway into the lives of founders Woody and Heidi Derricks. If it wasn’t for their experience with Furry Friends Network, Paws for a Cause wouldn’t exist.
The Hope Fund is used to help cover the costs of treating animals with severe injuries, illness, and/or in need of major surgeries.

As we all know, companion animals are still being turned over to shelters and rescue groups at alarming rates. We also know that rescue organizations rely heavily on the support and monetary donations of the community. We want to help! Each year, we hold a fundraiser to benefit one or two local animal welfare groups. No animal welfare group is too small to apply! Over the past 15 years, we’ve raised more than $100,000!
Our approach at the event is to find projects that local animal organizations need funded. We believe that having a monetary goal tied to a specific project helps loosen the wallets of those in attendance. For those interested, please download the application form, and email it to us at info@paws4cause.org.
In return, we ask that the group(s) selected help raise awareness of our event within their network of supporters and that they send a representative to the event. We will notify the group(s) if we are in need of a volunteer or two to assist before or during the event.
