Last Chance for Animals (LCA), an international animal rights organization, today announced its Compassion Gala honoring notable animal activists would be held on the evening of October 15, 2022, at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, CA.
Dynasty star Elaine Hendrix will receive the Celebrity Activist Award at LCA’s annual star-studded gala in honor of her tireless and passionate work as a globally recognized animal rescuer and activist. For over two decades, Hendrix has dedicated her life to rescuing, transporting, fostering, adopting, speaking, protesting, demonstrating, lobbying, educating, building habitats, and providing care for animals in need.
Philanthropist and animal welfare advocate Stacey Kivowitz is slated to receive the Albert Schweitzer Award during the awards program. She is a National Council Member of The Humane Society of the United States and on the board of the SPCA of Texas.
The event will also include a special tribute to the late Erika Brunson, a philanthropist, animal advocate, actress, and interior decorator who played a pivotal role in eliminating animals for laboratory use in Los Angeles.

Since its formation in 1984, LCA has succeeded as one of the nation’s pioneer animal advocacy groups doing undercover investigations and facilitating positive legislative changes and animal protection.
