Thank you to the employees at PepsiCo for choosing the Wisconsin Humane Society to benefit from not one, but two employee fundraisers in 2017!

A big thank you to everyone at PepsiCo for their generosity and support of animals in need!

These doggy bow ties will help our furry friends find forever homes - and look out for them on our Ambassador Animals at the Gala this year! Thank you so much, Alex!
