All it takes for a family pet to be hungry or surrendered to a shelter/rescue is for their family to have an unexpected medical bill or a job loss. This is an all too common story. Many families that were once financially secure now choose between buying food for their children or paying the rent and feeding the family pet. Your support enables us to be committed to assuring family pets are provided food and help the family keep their beloved furry family members.
Ask everyone involved to advertise the food drive to co-workers, family, friends, and neighbors. Make sure you let them know the food and/or funds are going to the Humane Society of Loudoun County to provide food to family pets in need. Use any and all of the following to promote your food drive:
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
