The ASPCA's Humane Awards Luncheon recognizes individuals who have worked on behalf of animal welfare as well as animals who have engaged in acts of heroism each year. Following a nationwide call to the public for nominations, an ASPCA-appointed committee reviews entries and selects winners in specific categories such as:
ASPCA Dog of the Year; ASPCA Cat of the Year; ASPCA Kid of the Year; ASPCA Presidential Service Award; ASPCA Firefighter of the Year; ASPCA Law Enforcement Officer of the Year etc... The 2008 luncheon was hosted by Chuck Scarborough in NYC's Rainbow Room.
