Pet Food 4 Furever Families
The Pet Food 4 Furever Families program was started directly because of the Covid-19 pandemic crisis, which hit the United States in full force in late March, 2020.
By early April, 2020, GCHS created the Pet Food 4 Furever Families program, to help families feed their pets, so they don’t need to owner surrender to local shelters. With the program, GCHS attends Mobile Food Pantries in conjunction with Community Cooperative and hands out bagged cat or dog food.
The program is dependent on donations by the public and donors have stepped up since early April. GCHS was there, as well, during the aftermath of Hurricane Ian, handing out well over 15 tons of pet food through the months after the storm. Since April, 2020, the GCHS pet food pantry has distributed well over 45 tons of pet food, the vast majority of that were through donated pet food.


Starting in 2022, GCHS has also started a pet food drop-off at six different food pantries, so pet food can get to the people who need it for their pets.
