Paws on the Pavilion Contest

Ready to turn your pet into a local legend?
The Paws on the Pavilion Contest is your chance to celebrate the four-legged friend who stole your heart while supporting our lifesaving mission.

Here’s how it works:
Community members (like you!) can enter their pet into the campaign with a $250 entry donation. Once entered, your pet starts the contest with 250 votes already in their treat jar. Each entry will receive a commemorative, customizable brick on the expanded Greenville Humane Society campus. Once your pet has been submitted our registration platform will ask you to set up your own personal fundraiser with a shareable link.  

Once entered, the fun begins! Share your pet’s photo and fundraising link far and wide — friends, family, coworkers, and fellow pet lovers can cast votes online. Every $1= 1 vote, and every vote helps fund the future of compassionate care in our community. Rally your network, unleash the group chats, and let the tail-wagging competition begin!

This is a lasting tribute that will welcome visitors for years to come, all while supporting pets in need.

The pet with the most votes at the end of the campaign will win the ultimate prize:

A private professional photo shoot with the GHS photographer
A larger-than-life feature photo displayed at the brand-new Greenville Humane Society Community Pavilion
 

Whether your pet is a zoomie champion, a professional napper, or simply the world’s best sidekick, this is their moment to shine.

For those honoring a beloved pet who has crossed the rainbow bridge, you are absolutely welcome here. Our team can work with almost any quality photo to ensure it looks beautiful when displayed at the Pavilion, allowing their legacy to live on in a truly meaningful way.

Every entry, every vote, and every shared photo helps build a brighter future for pets in our community. It’s more than a contest — it’s a celebration of the unconditional love pets give us every single day.
