About the Event

Unleashed is more than an event. It is a lifeline for homeless and stray animals throughout our community.

This signature Friends for Animals of Metro Detroit fundraiser features dinner, an open bar, live music, auctions, and special experiences throughout the evening. Every dollar raised supports medical treatment, nutritious food, enrichment, daily care, adoption services, humane education, and other essential community programs.

Now in its 26th year, Unleashed has helped transform the lives of more than 70,000 animals. Join us for an unforgettable evening of celebration, connection, and purpose.
