Voting for the Most Heartwarming Story is now closed – we will announce the winner of the contest on February 26!
Since the inception of Iams Home 4 the Holidays in 1999, Helen Woodward Animal Center has enjoyed the privilege of giving out a special award for the most heartwarming animal adoption story during the adoption campaign. Receiving and reading these amazing success stories is always rewarding for us. They encapsulate why the campaign is worth all the hard work.
This year, we are giving our friends, families, and fans a glimpse behind the walls of our animal welfare partners to witness the change they are making every single day. We are relying on you, dear friends, to help us make this decision:
Which organization should win this year’s prize for most heartwarming success story?
We have 10 finalists this year. Each story illustrates each animal’s unique journey; journeys that begin in abandonment, betrayal, or serious medical issues, and end in fulfillment, safety and most importantly, a loving home. The winning organization will be awarded $500!
Voting is now closed! We will announce our Most Heartwarming Story winner on Tuesday, February 26, at this blog! Thank you for participating!
However, you can still read the amazing adoption stories from our Iams Home 4 the Holidays partner organizations.
I am trying to vote for Wally and Polly but the vote number doesn’t change after I “cast my vote”.
Hi Grace, Did you check your email to verify your vote?
Can we vote daily or is this a one time only?
Such wonderful and compassionate folks out there! Thanks to all of them. Each animal is precious and their stories warm the heart!
Hi Margie! Thanks for the kind words – I know these organizations will appreciate to read your sentiments. To answer your question, this is a one-time vote only. Thanks for visiting!
I voted. My spam controller caught your verification message, but I thought to check there, and did verify my vote, yet the number of votes has not changed for the past 5 minutes to reflect my vote.
Hi Nancy, we checked our system and because your mail server originally rejected the email, it did not verify. However, our webmaster just verified it for you so your vote did, indeed, count. Thank you for double-checking!
