The 2025 Paws-itively Fall Festival, an annual fundraising crafts fair held Oct. 11 at the Dolbeare School gym in Wakefield, raised nearly $5,000 for PAWS.

 

The event featured more than 40 vendors, highlighted by award-winning author Janet Raye Stevens. 

 

The Paws-itively Fall Festival was sponsored by VCA Wakefield, The Savings Bank and Salem 5. Lynnfield Junior Crafters also contributed a nice donation.

​

The PAWS bake sale and crafts table provided significant revenue as well.​

PAWS Wakefield would like to thank all sponsors, volunteers, artists and customers who made the crafts fair a major success. Customers got a head start on holiday shopping and PAWS raised money to continue providing critical veterinary care, food and shelter to animals in need.
