Stay. Brunch. reminds us why we do this work — not just the pets we’ve been able to help, but the community that makes it possible. Eighteen years in, I am more inspired than ever. The stories we carry into that room are real; they are urgent, and they belong to all of us. Come be part of it.” — Jodi Polanski, Founder & Executive Director, Lost Our Home Pet Rescue.

This distinction recognizes an individual or organization that has made an extraordinary contribution to the animal welfare community. Mears’ visionary leadership at PACC911 has helped shape a more collaborative, compassionate, and effective animal welfare landscape across Arizona — one where organizations work in concert rather than in silos, and where countless more animals have been saved as a result.
