Join Darlington County Humane Society for Evening Under the Oaks 2026, an elegant evening of compassion, community, and celebration benefiting homeless and neglected animals across Darlington County.

Held beneath the sweeping oaks of Oak Manor Inn, this signature annual fundraiser brings together animal lovers, community leaders, local businesses, and supporters for a memorable night filled with Southern charm and meaningful impact. Guests will enjoy cocktails, dinner, live music, silent and live auctions, and heartfelt stories that showcase the lifesaving work happening every day at Darlington County Humane Society.

While our new adoption and education center has transformed how we care for animals, the need in our community continues to grow. Every day, vulnerable animals arrive needing medical care, nourishment, comfort, rescue, and hope. Funds raised through Evening Under the Oaks directly support shelter operations, lifesaving medical treatment, rescue transport partnerships, adoption programs, and educational outreach that inspires compassion for the next generation.

In 2025 alone, Darlington County Humane Society cared for 2,728 animals, helped 736 pets find loving homes, transferred 1,604 animals to rescue partners, and reunited 72 lost pets with their families. Because of generous supporters like you, thousands of animals receive the second chances they deserve.

Whether you attend as a guest, sponsor, donor, or community partner, your support makes a lasting difference in the lives of animals throughout our region. Together, we are building a more compassionate future for Darlington County, one life at a time.
