The Pennsylvania SPCA will be holding a fund-raising event in the memory of George Bengal, the shelter's director of Humane Law who died last month.

"A Night for George" will be held July 15 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at 732 Saint Andrew Road, in Philadelphia. Tickets are $50.

Proceeds will go to the George Bengal Fund to End Animal Cruelty, which was created shortly before Bengal died from cancer.

The event will include food from Revolution Taco, beverages from Tito's Handmade Vodka and Unibroue, a 50/50 raffle and raffle baskets.

About half of the agency's annual budget goes to rescuing and rehabilitating animals, it does not receive any local, state, or federal funding.
