During the upcoming Sebastian Fourth of July parade on July 4, 2024, For the Love of Paws plans to make a meaningful impact by filling its parade house float with much-needed cat and dog food.
This charitable initiative by the 501c3 organization aims to support their Love of Paws Pet Food Pantry for Seniors. Volunteers will accept donations from attendees as the float travels along Indian River Drive. These donations are crucial as the pantry distributes over 15,000 pounds of pet food each month to local food banks, seniors, disabled individuals, those in need, and veterans.
If you’re attending the parade, consider picking up extra pet food during your next grocery run and look for the Love of Paws float, pictured above. Alternatively, you can support their cause by visiting their Amazon Wish List to make a donation.
If you need pet food or know of someone who does, please visit here for the location nearest you. For more information, call (772)539-2417 ext 1.
For the Love of Paws provides a variety of services beyond their pet food pantry, including Paws Meals on Wheels, Paws Pet Sanctuary, Fur Real Pet Companions for Memory Care Patients, a Therapy Dog Program, Pet Emergency Oxygen Kits, Paws Spay & Neuter services, support through the Precious Paws Vet Care Fund, and operates the Love of Paws Thrift Store.
