Lucky’s Crew Animal Rescue hosted its inaugural Paws and Prosecco event Saturday afternoon, featuring a designer handbag bingo fundraiser. The organization operates as a sanctuary for abandoned, neglected and abused animals in Kern County.
Megan Garant, Board Member of the rescue, said the group formed after seeing a growing problem in the area.
“We saw a need for dogs that were being dropped in the North West Bakersfield, and so it just kind of became its own thing, and we created the nonprofit in 2019,” says Garant.
The proceeds from Saturday’s event will support the organization’s work helping local animals.
