Franklin's Friends is proud to present the seventh annual HOWL-O-WEEN on October 24, 2020. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, the event will look a little bit different this year. We've decided to call it HOWL-O-WEEN v2020 - and we think it will be a ton of fun for the whole family!

Peer to peer fundraising is live NOW! Create your personal or team fundraising page and start emailing your friends and family to support your efforts. There will be prizes for top individual fundraisers and top team fundraisers.

Our first annual online pet costume photo contest kicked off on October 1st. Start planning your dog OR cat HOWL-O-WEEN costume! We anticipate fierce competition as the dog photo and cat photo with the most votes will be featured in Franklin's Friends' 2022 calendar!

On October 24, WMMO's Denise Ryan will return to emcee HOWL-O-WEEN. We will join a MASSIVE zoom call (with our pets in full costume). Access to the Zoom meetup will be $5 per person - but individuals who raise (or donate) $50 and packs who raise (or donate) $500 will get free access. There will be a contest for best HOWL-O-WEEN Zoom background. We will play trivia and bingo, participate in a virtual scavenger hunt, and more! Costume contest winners will be announced as well as top individual and team fundraisers. CLICK HERE to purchase Zoom meetup registrations.

The event will also livestream for free from the event website but you won't be able to interact with the emcee and other guests and participate in the engaging virtual fun!

Either way, this will be an event not to be missed! Watch the following video to learn more about our mission:
