Volunteer Recruiters for Pets of the Homeless actively recruit Donation Sites in their communities. Donation Sites are businesses like groomers, veterinarians, florists, etc. that you may know or frequently do business with and agree to accept pet food donations from the public. Donation Sites then take the donations to homeless shelters and/or food banks. Volunteers will sometimes help the Donation Site transport the donations to the shelters and also report to Pets of the Homeless the amounts of pet food that is donated and distributed to the homeless with pets. Sometimes our volunteers will take it to the streets and spread the word about our free programs to the homeless. Others also help at Pets of the Homeless sponsored wellness clinics.
Did you know? Since 2008, Pets of the Homeless Donation Sites have reported they have received and distributed over 500.86
tons of pet food and supplies. That's over 1 million pounds of pet food! Help us feed more pets of the homeless; let's double this! You can help, too! Become a Volunteer Recruiter as an individual or a Donation Site as a business, and give back to your local community! All pet
food and supplies donated at donation sites stay in your community and are distributed to local homeless shelters, food pantries and/or soup kitchens where the homeless get meals. Those with their beloved pets will also be invited for a meal, too! Know of a homeless shelter in your area that might want to offer pet food, too? Become a Volunteer and talk to them about Pets of the Homeless' mission. We'll send you the necessary materials to get started. No pet should go hungry.
