Our goal is to reduce the number of San Francisco pets who become homeless or get relinquished to shelters in the coming months due to the impacts of COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The pet food bank is off to a great start. In September, 232 households received bags of cat or dog food!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This partnership will continue through at least January 2021, and we estimate that these services will help hundreds of families in need.<\/p>\n<p>We need your support to make lifesaving programs like the pet food bank a reality.
