Join us for an engaging evening as we reflect on the Potter League’s achievements and look ahead to the future of animal welfare in 2026.
This year’s meeting will feature a presentation by Hanna Lentz, Executive Director of SPARC (Supporting People and Animal Relationships for Change). Her talk, “Narratives to Inspire Our Best Work for Animals and People, Together,” explores how stories can strengthen the connections between human and animal well-being and inspire more compassionate communities.
Hanna has spent two decades advancing animal care and welfare across organizations including the Washington Humane Society, MSPCA–Methuen, and Farm Sanctuary. She has also led global programs with the International Fund for Animal Welfare and co-founded Impact by Design, a consulting firm helping animal welfare and conservation organizations maximize their impact.
This event is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.

We look forward to gathering with you for an evening of reflection, connection, and inspiration as we continue our shared mission of enriching lives and strengthening the bond between people and animals.
