Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley’s fundraising gala, A Night at the Speakeasy, is on Friday, October 24, 2025, at Bridgewater Place – celebrating 140 years of compassion, care and community.
In addition to the gala, other big things are happening at the HSTV as we continue to grow and improve our ability to serve the pets in our care as well as our regional shelter partners.
