A Pittsburgh-based nonprofit is looking to raise awareness and change the way people look at American Pit Bull Terriers with an event tonight on the North Shore.

Hello Bully’s mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and repair the reputation of the American Pit Bull Terrier. Volunteers and fosters support our organization out of the kindness of their hearts, and their passion to help Pit Bulls.

Hello Bully is having a Young Professional Mixer benefiting Hello Bully tonight at the Left Field Meeting space on the North Shore across from PNC Park from 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Young professionals from numerous industries will be present to network and build referral relationships. Members of numerous young professional organizations in Pittsburgh, including the Allegheny County Bar Association Young Lawyers Division and the Pittsburgh Social Exchange, will be in attendance.

For a $20 donation to Hello Bully at the door, attendees get a “bottomless” stadium cup, food, drinks, music and prizes. Adoptable dogs and “spokesdogs” from Hello Bully will be joining in on the festivities. Hello Bully will also be auctioning off a private lunch with the star of “Pit Boss” on Animal Planet.
