On March 25, 2020, Simmons Pet Food donated over 30,000 pounds of dry pet food to shelters and other organizations that work with seniors and other individuals who need assistance feeding their pets.
“In difficult times like this, we’re reminded how comforting it is to have the companionship of a pet,” comments Scott Salmon, President of Simmons Pet Food. “We salute the organizations that are helping to care for the people and pets in need in our communities. As a company with the purpose of making quality food for the families and pets we love, we believe this an important time to rally around our communities and do all we can to support them.”
The donation and distribution, to over a dozen locations in the region, was organized with the assistance of HARK of Northwest Arkansas and the Endeavor Foundation. Learn more about these organizations at collaboratenwa.com and www.endeavorfoundation.net.
