The Irvine Animal Care Center is excited to announce the opening of the annual Photo Fundraiser Thursday, August 1. The community is invited to submit their favorite photos of their pets online at irvineanimals.org/photofundraiser and encourage family and friends to vote. All proceeds help provide top-tier care and life-saving programs at the center. 

Eligible photos with a minimum of five votes by the end of the contest will be included in the 2025 Irvine Animal Care Center wall calendar. The top 13 winners will have their pets featured with a full-page photo in the calendar. Each entrant will receive a print calendar. Additional copies will be available for sale online. 

Photo submissions are accepted from August 1 through 31. The entry fee is $25 per photo. Voting is online and open to the general public from August 1 through 31. Votes are $1 each. To enter pet photos and/or cast a vote, visit irvineanimals.org/photofundraiser. 

All proceeds benefit the center’s Enhanced Care, Foster Care, and Third Chance for Pets programs.
