On Sunday, April 29, from 1-5pm, FACE presents Bags & Baubles, a silent auction of designer handbags. Fashionistas will gather at a private Rancho Santa Fe estate to bid on a stunning array of more than 200 new and “gently-loved” designer handbags.

 

FACE is encouraging community members to help collect bags for the event. Please contact the organization directly if you would like to donate a “gently-loved” handbag or two. It is a tax-deductible gift that will help save the life of a local pet.

 

The Foundation for Animal Care and Education (FACE) is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to enhancing and preserving the quality of life of pets. In what is being labeled as “economic euthanasia,” beloved companions are left to suffer or are euthanized when their owner cannot afford the cost of life saving veterinary treatment. FACE works to prevent this tragedy by providing financial grants to local veterinary hospitals for critical medical care. (www.face4pets.org)
