Plaquemines Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) held their 2nd Annual Gala and Auction on Friday, September 30 at Generations Hall in New Orleans. Special guests included Trapper Joe & Trigger Tommy from History Channel’s Swamp People. Music was provided by the Brockenbraughs.

Angela Hill was honored as Mistress of Ceremony this year. There was delicious food from top New Orleans Restaurants, speciality drinks and must have auction items, including Rolling Stones, Aerosmith & Taylor Swift autographed guitars, plus much more.

This was a major fundraiser for PAWS and all proceeds from this event goes to the medical supplies, surgeries and expenses for all of the neglected and abandoned animals in PAWS care.
