The fourth annual Legislative Food Drive Challenge will be held through April 17. Assemblyman Dave McDonough (Merrick) said he is honored to host t
his event again in collaboration with Long Island Cares and Baxter’s Pet Pantry.
“Pets bring a tremendous amount of companionship and comfort those living alone and also serve as friends for young children. I encourage members of the community to stop by and make a donation. Even a small donation can mean the difference between a pet going hungry or possibly going to a shelter.”
The best sizes of pet food to donate are five or 10 pound bags of dog or cat food. Canned food, kitty litter and new pet toys are also in demand. Donations will be accepted at 404 Bedford Ave., Bellmore. Visit www.licares.org for more information.
