Helping Animals In Disasters
Delivering Pet Food During COVID-19Our corporate sponsors and grants make it possible for our volunteer work for the community. We are using these funds to support our education efforts, making sure we have the necessary supplies on hand, and creating Pet Emergency GO bags to pass out to our community to ensure everyone is prepared!
Since March 22, 2020 our team has delivered more than $40,000 worth of dog and cat food to local food pantries to assist with the unprecedented demand during Covid-19. Check out the WCAX interview.
