March Muttness is back, and YHS is ready to defend our title once again. After winning the National Championship in both 2024 and 2025, we are entering our third year with our sights set on an unprecedented three‑peat.
Throughout March, shelters from around the country go head‑to‑head in timed fundraising rounds, advancing through the bracket based on total dollars raised. Every gift helps us move closer to the finals, and every round fuels lifesaving care for the pets who need us most.
We’ll be sharing updates, matchups, and ways to support YHS as we work toward making history.
Fur Ball 2026 is making its long-awaited return in the fall of 2026! Get ready for an unforgettable evening filled with heart, celebration, and community. Stay tuned for the official date and location — this will be the event of the season
