Fur Ball

ABOUT THE EVENT

In its third year, the Fur Ball is the Michiana Humane Society’s fall fundraiser that provides much needed operating funds for the coming year. It also raises awareness of the valuable contributions the shelter makes within the greater community. Held at the spectacular White Oak Farm Venue in Michigan City, the event is designed to be a fun time for a serious cause. The theme combines disco with country-western and the 300 (sell-out!) guests add personal flair by dressing the part. Open bar, heavy apps, DJ and dancing, plus exciting live and silent auctions, raffle and paddle raise cap off the event and contribute to the funds raised through corporate and individual sponsorship and program advertising.

First 100 tickets sold enters you to win Beats Solo 4 Headphones ($215 value)! 

IMPACT OF DONATIONS

The importance of success for the 2026 Fur Ball can’t be overstated, funds raised through donations & events like this accounted for nearly 90% of our income last year. And, the dollars raised from last year’s auction and raffle amounted to roughly one-third of our total event income. 

BENEFITS TO YOU

The Fur Ball is a unique opportunity to reach an engaged and influential target audience, the event guests who are exposed to your donation in-person consist largely of affluent full- and part-time Michiana residents.
