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.

CHRISTMAS BAGS ARE DONE FOR 2025!!!

Thank you to everyone who donated towards these, helped us put them together and drove supplies around for us.

This was our (Uxbridge Scugog Pet Food Bank) SIXTH year doing these!!

In that time we have distributed approximately 6,000 cat and dog Christmas bags via Durham Region food banks and other community groups. And every one of those bags contained Mars Petcare and Mars, Incorporated treats, coupons and/or toys!! Thanks to Vanessa and her team for always making sure we had these items. (And for the sorely needed food they also sent for the food bank!!)

This year, for the 4th year in a row - Mars also sent a team of helpers to aid us in putting together the bags!! These amazing folks help us soooo much (see Sam’s Mars crew in the 3rd picture).

For the third year in a row, our friends at Rescue Chow Pet Food Bank - Durham Region - Ontario / Barnies Horse and Pet - hosted us for the day. Tera, Joanne, Jim and crew also helped to receive, sort and store donations in addition to assembling bags.

Some of our other great volunteers today - MJ, Cat, Dianne, Kelly Anne, Kathy & her mom & our mascot Frankie; as well as the Mars Team and some additional RC volunteers.

Thanks also to PetSmart, Pet Valu, The Kibble Project and others for donating toys and/or treats to these bags!!

This is a monumental undertaking every year - but it means so much to so many people!!

Thanks everyone!!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!
