Your donation doesn’t just cast a vote—it supports lifesaving care, food, and second chances for rescue animals across our community. And while Mankato Man’s true identity remains unknown, his love for dogs and dedication to animal welfare is no secret.

He’s a dog dad. He’s a philanthropist. He’s possibly your neighbor. He might be standing behind you in line at the co-op. One thing’s for sure—he’s here to serve the rescue community with heart, humor, and a touch of dramatic flair.

If crowned, will he finally reveal himself? Or will he simply vanish into the night with a cape, a crown, and a rescued pup by his side? We can’t say.

But we can say this: Prom Royalty should be someone who shows up (even anonymously) for the animals. And Mankato Man? He understood the assignment.

Vote now, donate generously, and join us in the mystery, the magic, and the mission. 🕵️‍♂️🐶👑
