You know who can help make a positive impact in this world? Read the first word in this article. The world knows the stupendous and extraordinary Lisa Vanderpump for many things – she’s created an empire through all of her awe-inspiring projects, she owns some of the most renowned, ritzy, and upscale restaurants such as PUMP and SUR, and she is a part of our favorite shows we love binge-watching including “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” and “Vanderpump Rules.” However, in addition to all of her incomparable successes, one of the most incredible things about Lisa Vanderpump is her philanthropic work and all that she does to make this world a better place to live in.

Lisa Vanderpump and her husband, Ken Todd created the Vanderpump Dog Foundation which helps make a positive impact in the lives of animals and brings awareness and helps put an end to dog abuse. The foundation has already had so many accomplishments including having a peaceful march in Los Angeles to stop the Yulin Dog Meat Festival and has even opened up a rescue and adoption center in Los Angeles. In addition, yesterday, on November 3, 2016, the first annual Vanderpump Dog Foundation Gala was held at the Taglyan Cultural Complex in Hollywood, California.

The one and only Mario Lopez served as the night’s host and the event was filled with dancing, dinner, and both live and silent auctions. In addition, musical sensations including Leona Lewis and Eric Benet left everyone mesmerized with their spectacular performances at the event.

The outstanding night had many more exceptional highlights including Lance Bass being honored with the Hero Dog Award at the event. “Dancing With The Stars” performers also had a special performance at the event of “Who Let The Dogs Out” and “You Ain’t Nothing But A Hound Dog.”

A host of A-list celebrities came out to support Lisa Vanderpump’s phenomenal foundation and magical night. Celebrities in attendance at the event included Lance Bass, Leona Lewis, Mario Lopez, Eric Benet, James Kennedy, Eden Sassoon, Chaz Dean, Kyle Richards, Mohamed Hadid, the cast of “Vanderpump Rules,” and many, many more.

The first annual Vanderpump Dog Foundation Gala was absolutely remarkable and so ravishing. It’s an awe-inspiring event that encourages people to be a voice for those who otherwise cannot ask for help, like the animals and furry friends we all love. This foundation also shows how you can always make a difference in this world and help change the lives of many.
