Uxbridge Scugog Pet Food Bank

Our mission is to keep families together by helping them feed their pets in North Durham Region (Ontario, Canada). But to do this, we need help. Thank you!!

When we have extra food & supplies we love helping other animal welfare organizations. Registered Charity #72547 7137 RR0001

Who we are:
• we started the PFB in April 2020 – intended as a temporary resource to slowdown the dog and cat surrender requests due to the uncertainty brought on by COVID;
• since that time we have realized that this is a permanent need and also expanded to cover all of No

rth Durham – including food banks and community organizations in the Townships of Uxbridge, Scugog and Brock.
• we also became a registered charity this year;
• our core purpose is to keep families together - by helping people feed their pets.
• we also transfer excess food & supplies to rescues, shelters, sanctuaries and wildlife rehabilitators;
• we get food and supplies from large corporations; animal rescues; other pet food banks; and individuals;
• sort & store the food & supplies - as it often comes in bulk donations (by the skid);
• approximately 75% of our donations go to local food banks and community organizations – the remainder goes to animal rescues, shelters, sanctuaries and rehabilitators;
• our goal today remains the same as the day we started the pet food bank – to keep pets in their homes with their families and to help rescues to save animals. Our Charitable Objects:
- To relieve poverty by providing basic necessities of life, including food, clean water, and/or clothing to individuals or families who are in need.
- To promote the welfare of animals for the benefit of the public by providing food and supplies to pet food banks, rescues, sanctuaries, wildlife rehabs in need in Ontario.
- To receive and maintain a fund or funds and to apply all or part of the principal and income therefrom, from time to time, to qualified donees as defined in subsection 149.1(1) of the Income Tax Act (Canada).
- To carry out activities which are ancillary and incidental to the attainment of the above charitable purposes.

We are always grateful to receive food shipments - but some days are a bit nicer to work in than others!!

Thanks to my dad and our friend Phil for joining me in 45 degrees Celsius / 113 degrees Fahrenheit weather to help me receive this food.

Thanks to Mars Petcare, Mars, Incorporated, Purina and others for donating this food.

Thanks to Tera and Joanne at Rescue Chow Pet Food Bank - for sorting and storing all this food.

Thanks again to our neighbours at Alpha Omega Signs Inc. for once again loaning us their lift truck.
