Financial hardship is one of the top reasons pets are surrendered to shelters, and pet food prices have jumped more than 20% since 2022. Nobody should have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their pets.
Your donation keeps families together by supporting Pet Pantry and all of the Humane Society of Southern Arizona’s lifesaving work. Pet Pantry provides pet food and other supplies to owners experiencing financial hardship. Make a gift today to help love stay home!
Supporting families through tough times
With the rising cost of living, more and more families are experiencing financial hardship. Unexpected expenses, like the loss of a job or a new health issue, can set struggling families back. Your donation helps us provide pet food distribution and other supportive services to families in need so that families can still hold their pets close during tough times.
Meeting changing dietary needs
While even the cost of standard pet food can put a financial burden on families, the price of food skyrockets when a pet develops a health condition like a food allergy or kidney disease. Your support means we can offer specialized food and supplies to meet our community’s needs.
Keeping pets out of the shelter
Programs like Pet Pantry aren’t just compassionate — they're humane and cost-effective. Time in the shelter causes pets stress and costs much more than a few bags of pet food. With donations from compassionate people like you, we can prevent pets from entering the shelter in the first place.
