A local craft beer and music night delivered a major financial boost to the city’s vulnerable animals.

The Prince George Humane Society announced Facebook that last weekend’s Pilsner, Pretzels, and Pianos event raised 45-hundred dollars .

The evening featured live dueling pianos, local brews, and a silent auction.

The money raised will go directly toward emergency medical care and sheltering costs for rescued animals awaiting adoption.
