Animal Friends'' Chow Wagon Pet Food bank supports 35 food pantries and community organizations as well as nearly 100 clients onsite by providing them with pet food. We believe in helping people and their pets by keeping their pets' bowls full. We rely almost entirely on donations to support our program and as we see an increase in need for pet food - we need to expand our reach. This is where you come in! We need volunteers to host donation drives where they collect pet food and litter to donate to Chow Wagon. You would need to collect the physical items from friends and family or encourage them to purchase items from one of our online wish lists that are then sent directly to us. We will provide more information about the wish lists and the items we generally accept once you reach out.
Please reach out to our Pet Retention Liaison, Cecilia Oliveros, at coliveros@thinkingoutsidethecage.org if you are interested in this opportunity! This is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to volunteer offsite or needs more flexibility with their volunteer work. This work will strongly impact the lives of so many pets and people who depend on the Chow Wagon Pet Bank so please reach out if you are interested in this lifechanging work!
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
