Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA

Hi! Our names are Isabella Silva and Emerson Kant and we are raising money for Pasadena Humane Society for our mitzvah project.

We chose to do this because of our love of animals and all the misplaced animals that were injured or even killed in the California fires. The money raised can help provide shelter, food, and other supplies for the lost, hurt, or helpless animals. The money can also help with adoptions and fostering pets.

On March 8th, we will be selling Brownies & Bracelets at Ross’s in Highland Park from 12-3 to fundraise for Pasadena Humane Society. Please consider donating on March 8th or through our GoFundMe page. Any help would be appreciated for this important cause and supporting us in our mitzvah project for our upcoming Bat Mitzvahs.

The California Wildfires are CATASTROPHIC.

We're a group of California transplants and/or animal lovers who believe in the power of community. That's why we are hosting a heartfelt evening to bring old friends and new friends together to support victims of the devastating California wildfires.

We are supporting two charities: The Pasadena Humane Society and The GoFundMe Wildlife Relief Fund. We've setup 2 GoFundMe pages and rallying friends to contribute. This page is specifically for the Pasadena Humane Society. Every donation $20 and above gets an entry to win valuable prizes at our event! And no worries, you can also donate in support of non-animal victims at our second supported charity here: GFM Wildfire Relief 2025

So what's the event about?

On Friday, February 28, from 6–8 PM, come enjoy wine, games, and live music at the Vegas Valley Winery.

Let’s come together, share good times, and make an impact.

Your Friends,

Flowers of St. Francis fundraiser for Pasadena Humane

In sequel to last fall’s showing of Pasolini’s The Gospel According to St. Matthew, we are thrilled to share a second screening of Roberto Rossellini’s The Flowers of St. Francis, co-written by Federico Fellini.

Produced in 1950 to commemorate the year of Jubilee (which we are also in this year of 2025), this episodic film is based on stories found in a 14th century Italian text, Little Flowers of Francis of Assisi. Starring a cast of friars from the Nocere Inferiore Franciscan monastery in Rome in lieu of professional actors, it is a classic example of the neorealism style for which Rossellini is best-known.

The particularities of the script and style achieve a curious film, described well by Martin Scorsese as… “ a beauty and a joy [to watch]; humble, sweet, funny… disturbing in a good way; because Francis as a person; what he believes and how he deals with nature; his goodness as a character in the story, is a challenge to us; if he’s capable of it we are also capable of it”.

We warmly invite you to be inspired by the testimony of St. Francis through the art of Rossellini and Fellini, discuss and take action!

Pasta, drinks and refreshments will provided. The event is open registration through the link provided with a requested donation directly to the Pasadena Humane Society, a charity caring for injured and displaced pet animals in the ongoing California wildfires.

The film will be shown in the original Italian with English subtitles and runs 87 minutes. The film may not be suitable for all audiences because limited depictions of violence consistent with the 14th century account of St. Francis. Following a brief entry reception, the film will begin at 7:00pm. Post-film discussion will be led by our esteemed guest Professor Stefano Albertini of NYU and our revered Fathers Luigi Portarulo and Daniel Ray.

We are the Environmental Club at San Dimas High School and decided to take action to help those affected by wildfires.

The wildfires are not directly in our city, so we decided to reach out to the nearest area: the region affected by the Eaton Fire. All donations will go to the Pasadena Humane Society and help the many animals whose lives have been threatened by the fires.

The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have left a trail of devastation—impacting not only homes and landscapes but also pets who are now injured, displaced, or separated from their families.

That’s why we’re raising funds for the Pasadena Humane Society, whose team is working tirelessly to rescue, shelter, and provide care for animals in need. If you’re in a position to give, please consider joining us in this vital effort. Basepaws will match every dollar donated, up to $5,000.

Hi! My name is Tawni and I am from Northern California where wildfires have hit and family members felt the repercussions. My heart always breaks when I hear about this because I think about all the lost pets and wildlife who must be so afraid. This year for my birthday I’d like to come together and collect funds to support the Pasadena animal shelter who’ve been finding, taking care of and reuniting lost animals with their family during the wildfires in Southern California. Please donate whatever you can whether is $5 or $50.

Much love,

Tawni
