All of our sponsors play an important role in the event, and we are grateful they value animal welfare. We couldn't take care of animals in need without their commitment, and the fun and festive atmosphere our sponsors bring to events like Fur Ball. As an independent nonprofit, the Champaign County Humane Society receives no government funding, and it is not part of a larger animal welfare organization. Nights like Fur Ball celebrate the commitment of our community and provide fun and rewarding ways for all donors to give. Sponsors make it possible
