Help us kick off “National Adopt a Shelter Dog” month by sponsoring the largest bark-and-beer festival in Hampton Roads, Dogtoberfest. This is a major fundraiser for the animals at Norfolk Animal Care Center. Proceeds support pet adoptions, medical care, foster care, and education programs that have helped more than 7,000 animals find loving homes. To see what Dogtoberfest is all about, take a look at past years’ photos.

Dog lovers (and their dogs!) from all across Hampton Roads come out to enjoy craft beer, food trucks, and live music, making it a great venue for targeted messaging and generating community goodwill. Sponsorship is a great way to build brand awareness and connect with new customers in this population. Check out the chart below—there is sure to be a sponsorship level with benefits that are perfect for you!
