We are excited to welcome you back as we come full circle and return Wine & Whiskers to its roots—our original gala fundraiser at Hillcrest Country Club.

This memorable evening will feature the traditions you know and love:

A robust silent auction
Bottle raffle

Food, friendship, and inspiring guest speakers

We’re also adding new experiences, including a vacation raffle courtesy of Rupiper Travel.

Online Auction Details:
The auction opens to the public on Sunday, October 26th. You do not need to be a ticket holder to participate. Bidding closes during the gala at 8:00pm (need not be present to win).

Why It Matters:
Funds raised will directly support Heartland Humane Society’s general budget, helping cover:

Veterinary and medical care
Volunteer support
Facility costs
Staffing and community programming

Our fundraising goal is essential to sustain and grow the lifesaving programs at HHS. Together, we can continue providing second chances for animals in need.

HHS is funded entirely through private donations, adoption fees, merchandise sales, and community fundraising efforts. We rely on volunteers to support our day-to-day operations and outreach programs. Every contribution helps us continue our work.
