Preventing Pet Hunger

written by

Staff Writer

March 30, 2023

Together we are filling the bowls and bellies of pets in need

share

This is more than a bag of pet food.

This is a sign of hope for millions of families in need and a symbol of the dedication that we share with our partners to ensure that no one has to choose between food for themselves or their pets—because when families face hunger, their pets do too.

Starting in Missouri, these exclusive bags began their journey at Morris Packaging, where they carefully printed our one-of-a-kind PetSmart Charities® branding onto each bag with love to perfection.

Then they went to Utah, where our friends at Alphia filled the bags to the brim with premium pet food. And from there, they were sent off to Feeding America's network of food banks all across the country—that's 30 million pounds of pet food distributed to families in need. 

These bags are a little piece of our hearts to those in need and are a part of our larger mission to keep people and pets together.

Because when we say For Pets. For People. For Good.

We mean it.
