Why Mutt Matchers & Friends?
At our monthly meeting in September, 2008 the Mutt Matchers & Friends members discussed the fact that due to our hard economic times, there would be many families that possibly could not afford to feed their dogs and cats. A lot of these animals would more than likely be dropped off at an animal shelter in the hopes their beloved pets would be adopted or they would otherwise lose their homes.
We decided then and there that we would initiate the Care n Share program. We asked our local radio station, KGMN if they would put out a public service announcement to the people in our community. The Public Service Announcement asked that the public donate to our little pantry for this program to help dog and cat owners keep their pets during this economic crisis, The results have been utterly amazing! People from all walks of life have donated to this out-reach program. At first were just thinking to do it only for the Christmas season, but the donations were overwhelming and the need clearly demonstrated, so we are planning to continue it as long as these generous patrons donate to the Care n Share program. Many people have come to Mutt Matchers adoption center and received the donated cat and dog food for their pets. Almost all expressed their thanks and appreciation that someone thought about their animals and we have met some very nice people.
Please, if you can donate the food personally bring it to our adoption center located at 1001 Buchanan in Kingman, Az. (Across from the Mohave County animal facility) If you do not live near Kingman, Az., you can still help by sending us a donation for the Care n Share program. We will purchase dog and cat food for the animals in need! Our mailing address is: Mutt Matchers & Friends PO BOX 766, Kingman, AZ 86402. And remember, all donations are fully tax deductible!
PLEASE CARE enough to SHARE!
