8TH ANNUAL THANKSLIVING
November 14, 2026
1pm - 5pm, at FCFS
This is the longest-running and most anticipated special event of the year—and the largest on-site fundraiser supporting lifelong care for sanctuary residents.
​
A ticket supports the sanctuary and the individuals who call it home, while offering a thoughtfully curated experience made possible by generous mission-aligned partners. Guests enjoy a bountiful, fully vegan buffet; time to explore the sanctuary; activities; a silent auction; a joyful pumpkin party for the pigs; and a special meal for the turkeys honoring their lives.
​
Each ticket includes a signature swag bag filled with high-quality, mission-aligned items donated by compassionate partners.
​
As with all events, every dollar raised goes directly back to the residents and the sanctuary.
​
This event has sold out three years in a row—get your tickets fast!
