All participants who raise $5 or more will be entered to win a prize package that includes: 2 Tickets to the Lion King at the Fabulous Fox Theater, dinner at Evangeline’s Music House and Bistro in the Central West End, and an overnight stay at the world-famous Angad Arts Hotel in Grand Center.

BAHS asks that participants please share their fundraising page at least once per week on social media and share with their friends via email and text. A suggested goal is $1,000 (or more). However, if you raise even just $5 you are eligible for the grand prize and, they stress, "you are helping our animals!"
