Dogfighting is a bummer and Jorja Fox is teaming up with The HSUS to declare Chicago a bummer-free zone!

The CSI star is set to host  the fifth annual Spotlight Humane: Chicago fundraiser at the Hotel Sofitel Water Tower on Saturday, Feb. 27, 2010.

Money raised from the benefit will support End Dogfighting in Chicago — a community-based program that helps end the brutal “sport” through street-level intervention, free dog training classes, humane education in Chicago public schools, religious leader outreach, and collaboration with law enforcement.

About the event, Jorja said:

“As a dog lover, I am honored to be the host of The Humane Society of the United States’ Spotlight Humane: Chicago. All proceeds from this event benefit the End Dogfighting in Chicago campaign, which reaches directly into high-risk communities. No one else in the country is doing more than The HSUS to end dogfighting.”

Big words from a big star!
