Welcome to our second annual Pet Portrait Calendar: A FUNraiser for the Animal Rescue League of Berks County. Below, you will find more than 100 works of art by guest artists who volunteered their time and talent to create these incredible masterpieces for pet owners. Your vote and participation in this contest is not only fun, but it directly supports our lifesaving and heart-driven work: Whether protecting the abused and neglected, caring for the sick, sheltering the homeless or finding new homes for abandoned, your participation today provides lifesaving funds necessary to care for nearly 5,000 animals who need our help each year.


Voting is simple, FUN and 100% of the proceeds go directly towards helping us care for animals in the shelter!

• Each vote is a $1 donation.
• You can vote as much as you want, as many days as the contest is open, and for as many portraits as you want!
• We need your help! Please encourage your friends and family to vote, too. We've placed share buttons throughout the contest page to make it easy for you to do so.
• But HURRY! Voting ends at 11:59:59 PM on Saturday, July 24th.

The top 12 portraits that collect the most votes will be featured in our 2022 Pet Portrait Calendar. Both our artists and our pet winners will receive a calendar compliments of the Animal Rescue League of Berks County, as well as bragging rights for being the best artist and having the cutest pets in town

The Animal Rescue League of Berks County is a charitable 501c3 organization caring for nearly 5,000 animals each year to help them find second chances in a new home, or to help reunite them with their grateful owners. For more than 65 years, we've worked tirelessly to care for the sick, treat the injured, comfort the unwanted and protect the abused. Whether helping people in need keep their pets through surrender prevention programs, offering low-cost veterinary services and clinics, as well as outreach and education events throughout the county, our work goes far beyond the walls of the shelter. To learn more about us and the animals we serve, please visit us at berksarl.org.
