On Sunday, December 14, 2025 we held our Noelle's Ark Annual Benefit 2025 at the wonderful Fox Hollow in Woodbury, NY. Yes, it was right after a heavy snowfall but we made it through and we provide an extra thanks to the supporters who fought the weather to attend! We also thank Fox Hollow for their great attitude and for making us feel like the snowstorm was not a big deal. This year we were lucky enought to honor Dr Jason Heller of the Long Island Veterinary Medical Association, with the Noelle's Ark Altruist Award for his wonderful and tireless work helping after the devastating fire at the Happy Cat Sanctuary in Medford, Long Island earlier this year. Our program also included founder Dr. Noelle La Croix providing an overview of the 29 animals Noelle's Ark saved this year including Angelo, a 16-year-old Pomeranian with a painful ruptured eye. One of Angelo's owners was kind enough to come up to the podium and tell everyone Angelo's story. #charity #animalcharity #pethealth #animalwelfare #happycatsanctuary
