A night of glamour, gaming and philanthropy will help support one of North Texas’ premier exotic animal sanctuaries.

In-Sync Exotics Wildlife Rescue and Educational Center will host The Great Catsby: ROARing ’20s Casino Night Saturday, June 27, at the Cotton Mill in McKinney. The fundraiser will transform the historic venue into a 1920s-inspired speakeasy featuring casino-style gaming, live entertainment, auctions and other interactive experiences.

Guests can enjoy heavy hors d’oeuvres served throughout the evening, a premium open bar and opportunities to win prizes while supporting the sanctuary’s mission. The event will also feature curated silent and live auction items, along with surprises designed to capture the spirit of the Roaring Twenties.

Based in Wylie, In-Sync Exotics is a nationally recognized sanctuary that provides a permanent home for rescued lions, tigers, cougars, bobcats, servals and other exotic felines. Many of the animals arrive from situations involving neglect, abandonment or unsafe living conditions.

Through rehabilitation, specialized care and educational programs, the organization works to provide a safe environment where the animals can live out their lives with dignity.

The fundraiser plays an important role in helping the nonprofit meet its annual operating budget of nearly $2 million. In-Sync Exotics relies on donations, grants, corporate sponsorships and fundraising events to support the care, feeding and medical needs of its residents.

Organizers say every ticket purchased, auction bid placed and donation made directly supports the sanctuary and the animals in its care.
