companion animal cupboard

Friends of SVACA is honored to be supporting SVACA’s Companion Animal Cupboard program, launched in June of 2021 to help those families in our four communities who were experiencing economic hardships.

The Companion Animal Cupboard can provide one month's worth of food and supplies. If you reside in Campbell, Monte Sereno, Mountain View and Santa Clara, you can apply for this program by contacting us.

Our hope is to make the Cupboard a community-sustained program, and SVACA will happily accept donations of food and supplies. They have created Amazon and Target wish lists to make it easy to donate, or you can drop off donations at the SVACA Animal Care Center during business hours.

If you're interested in doing a food drive, or have a student who would like community service credit for such a project, please email janet@svaca.com for more details. For more information, click here.
