hawks and hounds – february 1st
Lawrence Humane presents the second annual Hawks + Hounds, an elevated and exciting KU men’s basketball watch party for 200 Jayhawk fans that also doubles as a fundraiser for the 6,500+ animals that come through our doors every year! This event will take place at Venue 1235, where guests will get to enjoy a specialty cocktail, great drinks (alcoholic and non), and delicious game day snacks. Not only will the game be shown on multiple TVs and the wall-sized projector screen, but we’ll also have fun games for participants and some unique KU-related surprises! Sponsors will be featured on all Hawks + Hounds marketing, including the full-color program brochure. Sponsors will also have opportunities for complimentary tickets, access to the VIP section, designated wait staff for their guests, and complimentary bottle service!
mullie classic – april 28
Mulligan (Mullie) was a puppy with a badly broken jaw when she arrived at Lawrence Humane. It took extensive dental surgery and months of recovery, but she is now a happy dog in a loving home and lives her best life advocating for the animals at Lawrence Humane. It is in her honor that we are excited to host the 3rd annual Mullie Classic Golf Tournament! Taking place at the magnificent and challenging course at the Lawrence Country Club, you won’t want to miss this 25-team, 4-person scramble. Mullie Classic golfers will get to enjoy complimentary breakfast, snacks, a Bloody Mary bar, a variety of drinks (alcoholic and non), fun swag items, and entry to the 19 th Hole after-party! And not only will golfers be competing for team trophies and prizes, they’ll also get to compete in fun contests along the way! Sponsors will be featured in all Mullie Classic marketing materials, including a special event scorecard. There are also opportunities to receive complimentary team entrances, include items in participant swag bags, prominent hole signage, host tables as hole sponsors, or even limited opportunities to sponsor everyone’s favorite: the beverage carts and putting contest!

This month-long event encourages getting outside and moving with your pets, family, and friends by walking, running, and/or biking – move in whatever way you like most!

This challenge can be a fun and healthy competition with your staff, colleagues, family, and friends! Sponsors are featured in Paw Valley Challenge marketing and have the opportunity to be featured on the Paw Valley t-shirts, distribute marketing materials in all participants’ swag bags, sponsor a mini-challenge, and have a vendor booth at the Paw Valley wrap-up party!
clear the shelter day – aUGUST
For a decade, Lawrence Humane has participated in a nationwide effort to get thousands and thousands of animals matched up with a caring family to call their very own in A SINGLE DAY. In 2024, our goal is to make sure that a minimum of 150 animals are sleeping in their new homes at the end of the day and our kennels are empty. Every animal that’s adopted goes home spayed or neutered, fully vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped. Each adopted animal also receives a collar, leash, and starter bag of Hill’s Science Diet pet food. Sponsorships help get these animals adoption-ready! Sponsors are included in all Clear the Shelter marketing and have opportunities to be featured on official Clear the Shelter t-shirts, participate as vendors at the event, and include promotional materials in the bags of every adopter.
