Proton Pets, spearheaded by Ghostbusters, Virginia, is a worldwide initiative to support local pets and animal welfare in our communities. It strives to make a tangible difference in the lives of both pets and their owners by encouraging pet food donations and raising awareness about the importance of pet pantries.
Pet pantries play a vital role in keeping pets happy, healthy, and in loving homes. Affording pet food can be a significant challenge for families facing financial difficulties. Pet pantries alleviate this burden by providing essential sustenance for pets, ensuring they remain well-fed and cared for. This support is crucial in preventing pets from being surrendered to shelters due to economic hardship. By supporting pet pantries, Proton Pets helps strengthen the bond between pets and their owners, reducing the strain on animal shelters.
Individuals, businesses, and community organizations can all contribute to the Proton Pets initiative. Please look below for a local or virtual fundraising effort for you. Here are also some ways you can help:
Donate pet food
Most pet pantries accept unopened, unexpired pet food donations. Contact your local pet pantry to find out what items are most needed.
Find a Proton Pet Food Drive
Gather your friends, family, or colleagues to collect pet food donations for your local pet pantry.
Spread the Word
Share information about Proton Pets and the importance of pet pantries with your network.
Volunteer Your Time
Many pet pantries rely on volunteers to sort donations, distribute food, and perform other tasks.
By supporting Proton Pets, you can make a meaningful contribution to animal welfare in your community. Together, we can ensure that all pets have access to the food they need to thrive. For more information about Proton Pets and how to get involved, please email GBVAEvents@gmail.com.
