Welcome to our Photo Calendar Fundraiser! You know you have the cutest pet. Now it's your chance to share them with the world! We are searching for super-star rescue pets, whether your furry friend found their forever home through our SPCA or another rescue organization! Share a photo of your pet and win one of at least 13 coveted spots in our 2025 Calendar. The top vote earner who was adopted from the Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA will be on the cover of the calendar!

Here are some guidelines.

• You can include multiple pets in one photo
• We beg you to please make sure your photos are of high enough quality to reproduce well. The better the resolution, the nicer the photograph will reproduce on the calendar.
• The more you communicate your participation in the contest (i.e. at work, with friends, via Social media), the better chances you have to win one of the top spots, and the more our pets benefit. Votes are $1 per vote.
• Calendars make excellent holiday gifts! People love seeing rescue pets in their loving homes.
• No people in the photos – we prefer to protect the privacy of our humans.
• In case of a tie, we will make sure the winners are included.
• All photos submitted will included in the calendar (although in a smaller size).
• This is a fun and exciting way to show how much you love your rescue pet.
• It's not over until it is over…the battle for the top calendar spots is not over until the very last minute… thus the ties!

People can vote as often as they like and votes will be displayed on the contest web page as they come in. Remember - vote early, vote often, and encourage friends and families to vote.

Reserve a day to honor your pet! For a $15 donation, your pet's photo will appear on the day of your choice (birthday, anniversary, adoption date). Just choose your favorite photo and then choose the day and pay! First come, first served! Once a date has been reserved, it will no longer be available. You can enter the same or a different photo for the date blocks, and you need not enter the contest if you just want your pet's picture on the calendar.

Please note that entering a picture with two animals will work for the contest, but because of the size of the date blocks, a single pet's picture will work best there. These date square pictures provide valuable extra support to the shelter.

Please consider pre-ordering a calendar. This will help us purchase the right amount of calendars so we don't waste valuable funds on extra stock. If placing a pick-up order, your calendar must be picked up by February 1st, 2025. If your calendar has not been picked-up by that date, it will be considered a donation to the Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA.
