Paws For Hunger

The effects of the economy reach far beyond just people. The sad truth is that when families go hungry pets go hungry too. Through the Paws for Hunger program the ASWRV collects donations to purchase pet food that is then distributed by the Hunger Coalition to help feed the pets of people in need.

This “pet food bank” has helped us control the number of animals entering the shelter by keeping pets with their families during their time of need. Since 2009, more than 35,000 pounds of pet food has fed hungry cats and dogs! We have seen the need for this service increase and we are working with the Hunger Coalition to offer food pick up in Ketchum in addition to Bellevue. With this striking increase in demand, We are currently in need of both monetary and pet food donations to support our Paws For Hunger program.
