Need
Keep beloved pets and their owners together during a critical transition! For individuals experiencing homelessness, a pet is often their closest companion, providing unconditional love, safety, and emotional stability. Many emergency shelters now allow residents to bring their furry family members, but supplying pet food can be a stressful financial burden. Your donation ensures these animals stay fed, healthy, and securely by their owners' sides.
More Details
This is a wonderful, highly practical opportunity for individuals, families, or groups to fulfill during their regular grocery or pet supply runs. You will purchase standard, high-quality dog or cat food and wellness items to help support the shelter's resource pantry.
Estimated Cost: Approx. $15 – $40 (Based on local Southern California pricing for standard dry kibble bags or cases of canned food at stores like Target, Walmart, or local pet supply shops).
