Ian Somerhalder, along with his wife Nikki Reed, will be this year’s Celebrity Grand Monarchs of Mandeville’s annual Mardi Paws parade.

The parade takes place just after Mardi Gras season in the Mandeville Lakefront, New Orleans. This year’s event is set for February 14.

The parade’s main beneficiary is the Ian Somerhalder Foundation (ISF), which focuses on animal welfare. Somerhalder recently purchased 100 acres of land in the region, some of which he plans to use to support local animals, among other charitable ventures.

This year’s Mardi Paws parade theme will be “Love is in the Hair” and will feature hundreds of dog owners and their pups walking for various charities while they toss dog-themed Mardi Gras beads and toys.
