TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — Tucson Subaru and friends of the Pima Animal Care Center (PACC) gathered Sunday for the 3rd Annual Pets of Pima Parade and Festival.
The fun event included food trucks, live music, and a 50's pageant featuring PACC's charity group Pinups.
Vendors and community partners gathered in the historic downtown 4th Street area to raise money for the animals.
“This festival symbolizes that. There are many animal rights organizations, but we just come together to celebrate the bond between humans and animals,” said spokesperson Roman Urias.
“This is an incredible gathering of individuals in Pima County who donate to us, helping not only our group, but other groups with adoptions.”
The organization said if area residents do not have the opportunity to participate in the parade or festival, the next major donation event will be Arizona Gives Day on April 2.
