APARN’s annual fundraiser, now called Pugs & Friends @Home, is an excellent way for your pug(s) and friends of pugs to help the APARN rescue pugs and help APARN continue its mission of No Pug Left Behind®. 100% of the funds raised by each contestant in this contest go to the care of the APARN rescue pugs. All of our canine friends entered in the competition are an essential part of raising funds to help rescue pugs find loving homes just like they have.
The contest runs for 8 weeks. There are no longer elimination rounds; the top 12 will be decided at the end of the 8th week of the contest. This year the contest starts on Sunday, June 7, 2020, and will end on Saturday, August 1, 2020. The winners will be announced on Sunday, August 2, 2020.
This year’s top fundraisers will receive the following prizes for their placement in the contest:
- 1st Place, the Cutest Pug will be featured on the cover of APARN’s 2021 Cutest Pugs Calendar.
- Top 3 Cutest Pugs will get a gift certificate for a custom painting by Chelsea Glass.
- Top 6 Cutest Pugs will be featured in their own APARN Zazzle Store Collection. Your pug(s) photoshoot pictures will be featured on a collection of Zazzle apparel and home décor for one year. All proceeds from the sales of your pug’s collection go to help the APARN rescue pugs.
- Top 12 Cutest Pugs will each be featured in the calendar.
LULU’s FUND MATCH
A big thank you to Timothy T. Day Foundation’s Lulu’s Fund for their generous support over the years. This year Lulu’s Fund helps us turn $10,000 into $20,000 by matching a $1 for every $1 raised up to $10,000! Lulu Day was the winner of APARN’s first Cutest Pug Contest and has been an essential part of the contest’s history. We are honored to continue her legacy through this fundraiser.
