The Vegas Golden Knights, VGK Foundation, and Friends of Henderson Animal Support teamed up to host the Pawlidays event on Dec. 18, 2024.

Golden Knights players, VGK cast, and even Santa attended the event.

Dogs and cats were available for adoption. The VGK Foundation covered up to $15,000 in adoption fees for the animals finding their forever homes.

“Several of our players are passionate about animal welfare and they helped connect us with the Friends of Henderson Animal Support for this exciting opportunity,” said Kim Frank, President of the Vegas Golden Knights Foundation. “Bringing a pet into the family is incredibly rewarding and it’s our hope that this event encourages more people to adopt this holiday season.”

Pawlidays is part of the VGK Foundation’s Holiday Knights of Giving initiatives. These initiatives help give back to the community and spread some cheer this holiday season.
