Meet Gidget. Gidget was chained up outside her whole life, living in dirt, mud and a grimy shack. In her three years of life, she was never once taken off the heavy chain or able to run and play. When her owners decided to surrender Gidget during a cold winter, her rescuers could not get her chain off. They ended up having to take the chain with her because it was embedded into her neck.

When Gidget arrived at the shelter, she was emaciated, anemic, suffering from roundworms and whipworms, and had a bad infection in her mouth. She was also heart worm positive and had fluid in her abdomen that might have been indicative of heart damage from the heart worms. While she received treatment for her various medical issues, Gidget was able to return to a healthy weight thanks to the high-quality, healthy food her shelter received through the GOODS program.

In honor of the 9th annual National Feed a Rescue Pet Week, Greater Good Charities celebrates the resilience of shelter pets like Blue! 
 

Blue was born at a rural shelter, the runt of his litter—sick, malnourished, and barely hanging on. Thought to be blind and too weak to eat, his outlook was grim. But with round-the-clock care and support from our GOODS Program—including nutritious food, medication, and supplies—Blue began to recover. As he gained strength, his vision returned and his playful spirit emerged. Today, he’s a healthy, happy pup thanks to the lifesaving care and essential resources he received.

We are calling on our community of pet lovers to donate 3 million meals to rescue pets across the country, including Blue! Your tax-deductible gift of just $25 can ship 500 meals to rescue pets in need!

How Your Help Can Change a Life
One of the biggest expenses for shelters and rescue groups is feeding animals in their care. While an average of 6.5 million animals enter shelters each year, only 3.2 million are adopted, meaning there are more and more bellies to fill each year. For many rescues, after food costs, they have little or nothing left in their budget for medical treatment, vaccines, or other adoption programs.
 
That's where the Greater Good Charities comes in — we ship donated food to rescue groups around the country to make sure their animals are fed, and that they have extra money in their budget to help dogs and cats in desperate need.

Donate now to help us reach our goal of 3 million meals in honor of National Feed a Rescue Pet Week.
