This year I am taking part in the Hungry Bowl and organizing a pet food drive. All food will be donated to Homeward Pet, a local animal rescue group. Here is some information that I copied from their website.
Mission Statement

20 Years of Animal Rescue and Adoption!
Celebrate our 20th anniversary with us! We were founded in 1990 under the name "Hooterville Pet Safehaus". We started with simple goals: save and re-home cats and dogs and educate the public about spaying and neutering their pets.

In 2002 Hooterville became Homeward Pet Adoption Center. We are one of the largest no-kill shelters in the state of Washington! Each year Homeward helps over 1,300 cats and dogs find their forever home. Where do these animals come from? 40% are owner surrenders and the other 60% are animals we rescue from shelters who euthanize.
We remain small with a staff of 15 (half are part time). And our 200+ volunteers are our backbone (thank you volunteers and donors!). Many of the rescued animals who come to Homeward get more love and attention in our shelter than they have ever known.
