HELP the Animals, Inc. (Humane Existence for Lost Pets) maintains a nonprofit shelter, providing a home for lost or abandoned dogs and cats that are sometimes victims of cruelty, abuse and/or neglect. All animals in our care are spayed or neutered before adoption, ensuring that they will not add to the overpopulation of unwanted pets. Shelter staff provide medical care, nourishment, exercise and love while actively pursuing forever homes; animals remain at the shelter until permanent homes are found.
Prizes
1st Place
The photo receiving the most votes will be awarded the coveted 2025 HELP the Animals Cover spot, two free 2025 Calendars, and a goodie basket for your pet (must be able to pick up at the HELP shelter).
2nd-13th Place
Each of these winners will appear as a photo on one of the twelve months. HELP reserves the right to select which photo appears in a specific month. Photos will be displayed as large as possible on the page; poorer quality photographs may be replaced by a better-quality photo of the same dog at the discretion of HELP.
Everyone
Every photo that is entered to the contest (that meets the requirements) will be included in the calendar. These photos will be placed in free boxes on the calendar and will not include text or be placed on dates.
Reserved Date
Photos with a reserved date will appear in the box on that date. Please be aware that these spaces are relatively small, so please choose a photo that you will enjoy at the size of a calendar square.
