    During this festival, a Chinese auction will take place throughout the day in which 100% of the proceeds received will directly benefit the Humane Society of Berks County. Items from numerous businesses throughout the Berks County area will be displayed & available to win during the auction. The total amount raised during this auction plus admission to the festival proceeds will be a very needed boost to help our furry little friends.

     

    Also during this festival we will be accepting food donations for Philabundance, a Philadelphia-based food distribution warehouse. The items being accepted at the festival will be any non-perishable canned or boxed food products, toiletries/hygiene products & pet food products. Items must be recently purchased, unopened & in decent condition.
