THE SATO SOCIAL
Sunday, October 25 • 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM • Public Records • 233 Butler St, Brooklyn, NY 11217
Join us for a special afternoon celebrating 15 years of The Sato Project and the #satostrong community that has helped change the lives of Puerto Rico's stray dogs.
Founded by Chrissy Beckles, a former New York Golden Gloves boxing champion, The Sato Project was born after witnessing Puerto Rico's stray dog crisis firsthand. Since 2011, the organization has rescued more than 8,000 dogs, provided lifesaving medical care and disaster relief, and become one of the leading voices for animal welfare on the island.
The Sato Social brings together adopters, supporters, local businesses, creatives, founders, and dog lovers for an unforgettable afternoon of food, drinks, music, raffle prizes, and meaningful connection. More than a celebration, this event is an opportunity to honor 15 years of impact while helping power the next chapter of rescue, advocacy, and hope for thousands more dogs in need.
Every ticket purchased helps support The Sato Project's lifesaving work and creates a brighter future for dogs in need. Space is limited and tickets are selling quickly. A portion of the ticket price ($75) is not tax deductible.
THE CHALLENGE
There are an estimated 650,000 stray dogs in Puerto Rico, and the need remains urgent. Limited access to veterinary care and rising costs make our rescue work increasingly challenging. Every donation helps us continue fighting for the satos of Puerto Rico and the second chances they deserve.
OUR IMPACT
For the past 15 years, we've been fighting for dogs that have no one else fighting for them.
8,000+ dogs rescued and flown to loving homes
5,000+ spay, neuter, and vaccine procedures
150,000+ pounds of emergency relief delivered
275+ pets reunited with their families after disasters
We're doing the work every day, on the ground in Puerto Rico and alongside a community that refuses to look away.
JOIN US!
Help us continue the fight for Puerto Rico's stray dogs by funding lifesaving rescue efforts and growing the #satostrong community behind this mission.
