Bakersfield Pet Food Pantry
We started in April of 2009, donating pet food to folks who were receiving food from a local church and soup kitchen in Oildale. WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Quickly we saw a need far broader in this town than imagined. Bakersfield has a high unemployment rate along with overcrowded animal shelters. Many community members donβt have enough money to feed their beloved four-legged companions. They often have to make a choice between feeding themselves or their pet. To date, over 600,000 pounds of pet food has come through our pantry to be given to those
Sweet, sweet, Lily, whose mama has made so many generous donations to the Pantry over the years, had to cross the rainbow π bridge.
Our hearts break for her mom and dad, and as well my own heart hurts. Lily was such a loving soul.
Lilyβs mom donated Lilyβs supplies and toys so that many other pets will benefit.
Lilyβs parents also made a generous monetary donation to the Pantry. This will serve so many other pets. Their kindness was immense.
Thank you so much for thinking of the Pantry in your time of grief. Run free sweet girl πΎππ
This pup was so cute at the Pantry today!
As soon as his dad picked up the treat ππbag he knew the scoop and was so excited.l πΎπ
Huge thank you to all who have donated to the Bakersfield Pet Food Pantry!
These people and their pets are who your donations help to serve πΎπ
We served 160 people today!
That means approximately 644 pets will have full tummies!
That also means that approximately 6,500 pounds of pet food passed through our doors today!
We can only continue to serve the community through the donations we receive. Thank you for your support πΎπΎ
