BEDFORD CO., Va. – If you want to support animals and animal shelters, it’s time to Pack the Pallet!
Running from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, Friends of Bedford County is collaborating with Nestlé-owned Purina to collect donations at Bedford Walmart.
James Germann, field sales representative for Nestlé, said, “Everyone knows these shelters are overloaded with animals currently, and these shelters are struggling, getting donations and so forth, so it helps them, it helps the community.
“And if cash donations are made, that either goes towards surgeries, medication, or to purchase more food.”
At Walmart, you will see them handing out flyers. If you purchase pet food or supplies, you can donate it to them as you walk out of the store.
Last year, Pack the Pallet collected over 36,000 pounds of food.
