Seattle, Wash., June 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This month, GOODS, a program of Greater Good Charities teamed up with Wellness Pet Company’s Wellness Foundation to provide 663,000 meals to help families who are facing economic hardships stay together and feed their pets. The GOODS Program operates on a hub and spoke model, delivering product to pre-vetted and trained Ambassador groups who then distribute the product to local end recipient groups in need.
This generous donation is being distributed by Rescue Pack in Chicago, Phoenix Dream Center in Phoenix, and Feeding Tampa Bay in Tampa. Together, the donations helped more than 30 organizations support local families in need, rescues, shelters, and food pantries.
“We are proud to work with the Wellness Foundation and Wellness Pet Company to help keep people and their beloved pets together during challenging times,” said Liz Baker, CEO for Greater Good Charities. “Pets provide comfort to family members and no family should ever be forced to have to give up their pets because of an economic hardship.”
The GOODS Program works to help more than 9,000 animal welfare organizations across the nation that provide this essential service to their communities. In addition to helping homeless pets, the GOODS Program helps families facing economic hardships, homeless populations, veterans, domestic violence survivors, and victims of disaster through thousands of additional charitable partners.
