History and Mission of Vice Is Nice

The "Vice Is Nice" event has been a consistent fixture in both the adult and mainstream entertainment industries for 14 years. It is described as bringing together "animal lovers, poker champs, and partygoers for one incredible cause." The event is hosted by Kelly Holland, who is also the founder of The Animal Rescue Alliance (TARA).

TARA is dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming animals in need. Funds raised from "Vice Is Nice" are directed towards TARA's rescue efforts, medical care, foster program, and other lifesaving work for animals. Holland stated that "Every dollar raised goes directly to the rescue efforts, medical care, foster program, and lifesaving work for animals in need."

Previous iterations of the event have seen significant attendance. The 10th annual "Vice Is Nice" event, held on Saturday, July 27, 2019, reported over 750 animal-lovers in attendance. That year, the event not only raised funds for The Animal Rescue Alliance but also shared proceeds with four local rescue organizations that had similar needs.

The event has also been a platform for raffle ticket winners, with "Vice Is Nice 2025" raffle ticket winners announced on The Animal Rescue Alliance website.

TARA has also organized other fundraising events in the past, including "Fore the Dogs" on April 29, 2017, at Painted Desert Golf Club in Las Vegas, Nevada, which included a silent auction and raffle.
