It’s the most joyous moment in a pet’s life. And for animal lovers, too. It’s the moment you open the front door. The moment you are coming home.

You may have been gone on a long vacation or an important business trip. Or just for a day at the office. Perhaps a round of golf. Maybe even just a walk down to the mailbox. To your pet, it doesn’t matter where you went or how long you were gone. What matters is that you have come home.

This year, for the first time in five years, we are “coming home” to a very special place that hosted some of the most memorable and successful fundraisers in our history. Coming Home, the 2024 gala for the Cashiers-Highlands Humane Society, is Monday, June 17th at 5pm at The Country Club of Sapphire Valley. The evening will feature a live and silent auction combined with a magnificent dinner and beer, wine and spirits. Live auction items include an unforgettable one-week vacation in Sea Island, Georgia including tickets to the RSM Golf Classic, private dinner parties, an exclusive luncheon for 12 at the majestic Rockwood Lodge, and a once-in-a-lifetime falconry experience.

Coming Home is limited to just 200 guests. Tickets are $225 per person, $450 per couple. A portion of the ticket purchase is a generous, tax-deductible contribution to support our lifesaving mission of rescue, spay/neuter and adoption, and community outreach programs such as humane education, summer camps, rabies vaccination clinics, and a free food pet pantry. You can reserve your seats today by calling (828)743-5769 or purchasing them via the form below.

Celebrate the unconditional love we receive from our pets by “Coming Home” with us on Monday, June 17th at The Country Club of Sapphire Valley!
