Pro Bono Analytics: Creating Blankets for Homeless Pets in Need in Seattle
The 2024 INFORMS Annual Meeting not only offers unprecedented access to thousands of cutting-edge sessions and countless networking opportunities, but this year’s event will provide a unique opportunity to make a tangible and lasting difference in the lives of homeless pets in Seattle. Pro Bono Analytics is partnering with the Seattle Humane Society to provide an opportunity for Annual Meeting attendees to create soft blankets for pets in need in our host city of Seattle.

Together, we can foster compassion and create a lasting impact!
Event Details
Date: October 21
Time: During Exhibitor Booths open hours
Location: The INFORMS Center
How to Participate
Drop by the INFORMS Center among the Exhibitor Booths to help create the blankets. It’s a great way to spend your downtime in between sessions or during coffee breaks. Engage in meaningful conversations, connect with fellow attendees, and share insights on the many other ways OR/MS and analytics can be applied to address societal challenges.
In the lead-up to the meeting, we will also be accepting donations to help offset the cost of the supplies for the blankets. No gift is too small, and the more donations we raise, the more blankets that can be created and donated! Plus, you can learn more about other ways to give back to the INFORMS community.
