Once again, CARES will be bringing the beloved “Top Pet Contest” back to help raise funds for the American Heart Association.

Each year, Alive animal lovers share their pets in the contest with a $5 entry fee. Then all employees vote in $1 increments for the “Top Pet”.

All proceeds go towards the Heart Walk. This year, Team Captain Jess has raised the bar and set our donation goal to $2,500. Jess has participated in the Heart Walk for the past four years either working the table event or being part of the team encouraging donations. Jess shared, “I love that Alive participates in the Heart Walk each year because it gives employees a chance to rally together to help support a great cause and shows how dedicated Alive is to supporting it’s community.”

Are you interested in seeing if your pet has the stuff to be a star? Share your picture or video today. Voting begins July 31st! For more information, check out the Top Pet Contest page.
