Save Our Pets Foodbank

A friend of mine, Vanessa Lowry, owner of Connect 4 Leverage sent this to me and I wanted to pass it on to others. As Kathy and I are life long animal lovers I ask you to check this out.

The Save Our Pets Foodbank was started in 2008 and the organization has given away more than 30,000 lbs of pet food. SOPFB provides pet food to individuals who temporarily are facing financial challenges due to job loss or illness and can't afford to feed their pet. With more than 13 million jobs lost in the United States over the past year, budgets are tighter than ever. The cost to feed a pet creates a crisis during a financially difficult time and families may be forced into a decision to give up their beloved pet. Adding your Dad or a friend to the Good Dad Honor Roll helps keep a pet with its owner.

While Save Our Pets Foodbank is located in Atlanta, the organization has compiled a national list of food assistance programs and provides tips on starting a pet food bank. Find out more at www.saveourpetsfoodbank.org
