Meals on Wheels is known for providing hot, nutritional meals for home bound seniors. However, not as many people know that Meals on Wheels also provides pet food for the seniors who have furry friends at home.
Twice a month the Meals on Wheels volunteers deliver pet food to the homes of our seniors. Like everything in a non-profit, Meals on Wheels depends on donations in order to insure that the pets are taken care of as well. This past Saturday, June 24th, Windermere North organized a pet food drive in order to raise food for local pets. Wandermere Animal Hospital, Mt. Spokane Vet Hospital, and Banfield Vet Hospital also pitched in, serving as drop off sites for the donations. With the help of many volunteers and generous donars, Windermere North collected cat litter, dry dog food, and canned and dry cat food, which totaled over $2,000 in value. Thanks to all of these efforts, the pets and seniors of Meals on Wheels Spokane, will be provided with nutritional meals.
