The Perry Hotel & Marina in Key West recently donated $15,000 to the Florida Keys SPCA (FKSPCA), demonstrating the hotel’s commitment to supporting the local community in Key West and Stock Island.

The donation was made possible through the hotel’s newly launched Community Impact Program, which has raised over $30,000 in 2024 to direct toward charitable organizations and initiatives that enhance the well-being of residents in the local community. 

The hotel is the second in the area to launch the program through its management company, EOS Hospitality.

The culmination of these fundraising efforts was marked by a check presentation on Tuesday, July 23, at 11 a.m. The event was attended by representatives from both The Perry Hotel & Marina and FKSPCA, highlighting the partnership between the two organizations.

Since opening in 2017, The Perry Hotel has been the first major hotel to welcome guests and their dogs, regardless of size. This pet-friendly policy was crucial following the devastation of Hurricane Irma when the hotel opened its doors to numerous families and their pets who were displaced. Many of these families found a temporary home at The Perry Hotel for over six months.

Continuing its support for the pet community, The Perry Hotel has partnered with the FKSPCA to host “Yappy Hours” at the Salty Oyster Dockside Grill & Bar. These events invite local friends and neighbors to join with their pups, providing a fun and relaxed environment where adoptable dogs from the shelter can find new, loving homes. The FKSPCA is dedicated to the humane treatment of all animals through compassionate care, adoption, education, population control and law enforcement. The organization’s work has been supported by The Perry’s consistent efforts to raise awareness and funds.

“We are thrilled to support the Florida Keys SPCA and contribute to the welfare of animals in our

community,” said Troy Talpas, general manager at The Perry Hotel & Marina. 

The Perry Hotel & Marina remains dedicated to giving back to the community and looks forward to continuing its efforts to improve the lives of people and pets in Key West in partnership with its owners, Key International.
