safety measures, I am thrilled to be partnering with
Broadway.com yet again to present our annual event to the

can’t participate in our in-person event in Shubert Alley,
we are excited to be presenting more animals from more
shelters,” said Bernadette Peters.

light on animals from the following shelters and rescue
