Los Angeles Auto Show Announces PetSet as Charity Partner For Animals Initiative
Los Angeles Auto Show Collaborates with PetSet
The 119th Los Angeles Auto Show is making headlines by partnering with the organization PetSet as its official charity partner. This collaboration has been marked by the launch of the Road to Home for the Animals campaign, aimed at raising funds and awareness for the plight of homeless animals in the community.
Starting on November 12, 2026, the campaign will run through December 6, 2026. This initiative is particularly significant as it aligns with the Auto Show's Media and Industry days, as well as the consumer-focused events that follow.
PetSet is well-known in the animal welfare sector, having invested over two decades in addressing animal homelessness by focusing on strategies such as preventive care, access to veterinary services, and sustainable solutions for animal welfare. The organization has successfully raised more than $20 million for its cause, assisting with medical care and improving the lives of animals across the United States.
A Multifaceted Campaign to Engage the Community
The Road to Home for the Animals campaign consists of multiple activation strategies aimed at engaging participants in meaningful ways. The highlight is the Auto and Music Experience, set for November 20, 2026, at The Motoring Club. Participants can expect an evening full of live music performances intertwined with a showcase of over 20 exotic vehicles, including a curated display of classic Porsches.
Tickets for the event are available for purchase, with general admission starting at $125 and VIP experiences at $250. This promises to be a conducive environment for networking among automotive enthusiasts, community leaders, and animal advocates alike.
In an effort to directly connect attendees with the cause, Adoption Days have been scheduled for November 21 and 28, 2026. The Agoura Animal Care Center will partner with the Auto Show to feature adoptable pets, allowing families the chance to meet dogs needing loving homes, with the idea of fostering connections that traditionally take place in shelters.
Fundraising Efforts and Auctions
Moreover, two auctions are to be conducted as part of the campaign. The Road to Home Auction, which is already underway and will close on December 1, allows participants to bid on unique lifestyle items, VIP experiences, and other exclusive donations.
Additionally, the Los Angeles Auto Show will hold its own auction commencing on November 23, continuing through the show. The items featured will be specially curated and align with the interests of automotive fans and collectors. Proceeds from these auctions will directly contribute to the mission of PetSet and support the vital services provided by Healthcare for Homeless Animals.
Making a Difference One Animal at a Time
Healthcare for Homeless Animals has a long-standing history of assisting shelter animals in need. Tamy Rieder, the organization's president, highlighted the critical nature of their work, stating, "Every day, shelter animals arrive needing vital treatment, and it’s our goal to ensure they receive the care they deserve. The partnership with the Los Angeles Auto Show allows us to expand our reach and visibility."
PetSet's co-founders, Tama Lundquist and Tena Lundquist Faust, expressed their enthusiasm for the collaboration: "Every animal deserves a loving home. Through this initiative, we’re not only raising funds but fostering a compassionate community that takes action for animal welfare."
For those interested in getting involved, the official campaign hub will provide details on event schedules, donation opportunities, and more. It can be accessed through the Los Angeles Auto Show and Road to Home for the Animals websites.
Conclusion
As the 119th Los Angeles Auto Show approaches, this initiative not only showcases the bond between automotive culture and community service but also underscores the importance of coming together for a good cause. Through the Road to Home for the Animals, the Auto Show aims to create brighter futures for countless animals in need, proving that the combination of passions can lead to substantial social change.
