Our friends at Hill’s donated 10 pounds of pet food to local shelter pets with each new subscription that was made in our VCA hospitals. Because of this generosity over 4,000lbs of their Science Diet food will be distributed in our local community to homeless and low income families with pets. We are honored to be partnered with Hills and to help families in need feed their furry loved ones. #VCACharities #Hills #ABetterWorldForPets #helplocal

COVID-19 has impacted pet owners in more ways than ever imagined. In response, VCA Charities, in partnership with VCA Animal Hospitals, continues to find ways to increase its impact and enable access to veterinary care. Through recent grants to shelter partners as well as the new VCA Charities HOPE Funds programs, vulnerable pets are receiving care and pet owners are finding hope. To show our commitment to #vcacharities, VCA will be matching client donations, dollar-for-dollar up to $300,000, now through December 31, 2020. Join us in supporting pets in need by making a donation when you visit a VCA hospital, online at vcacharities.org or text HOPE to 213-325-1919. #vcacares #abetterworldforpets #proudlymars
