DENVER (August 17, 2022) – Employees from Larry H. Miller Dealerships will help distribute pet food to families in need and present a donation for $14,000 to Colorado Pet Pantry on Friday, August 19.

 

The $14,000 grant to Colorado Pet Pantry will support its Pet Food Bank, Emergency Pet Food, and Animal Welfare Share programs. Colorado Pet Pantry is the largest pet food pantry in the nation. Its programs support pet owners’ ability to keep their pets at home during times of crisis and financial struggle, supporting overall pet welfare throughout Colorado. The food bank also works to ensure that by providing donated pet food, people in need of food get to keep the already limited “human” food for themselves, and the pets received balanced meals.
