San Diego Animal Hero Awards

The FACE Foundation presents the inaugural San Diego Animal Hero Awards to raise money for local critically ill pets, helping San Diego families and pet parents pay for life-saving veterinary care that they otherwise could not afford.

Supporters will enjoy an evening with live music, cuisine by Toast, fine wines, pet portraits, photo booths, live and silent auctions, and opportunity drawings. San Diego Animal Hero Awards will recognize and honor the contributions of animals and their advocates in seven categories: Veterinary Industry, Service Animals, Working Animals, Vanguard Award, For-Profit Animal Business of the Year, Not-For-Profits – Rescue or Humane Society, and Animaltarian Award. Following the trophy presentation for each category, the main award — The San Diego Animal Hero — will be selected among the honorees. The winner will receive a $5,000 check made out to the San Diego County animal charity of their choice.
