National Pet Food Bank Program

Thanks to your generous support, Humane Canada continues to make critical progress through the National Pet Food Bank program. We’re excited to share two key updates that highlight the momentum and impact your investment is helping create. 

Grant Cycle Update  

Our latest round of National Pet Food Bank grants has officially closed. We received an amazing number of strong applications from organizations across the country—each working to ensure that families don’t have to choose between feeding themselves or their beloved pets. It’s inspiring to see how much momentum is building in communities that are stepping up to meet the needs of both people and animals. 

The Review Committee will be meeting this week to evaluate proposals and select the next group of grant recipients. We’re excited to support these organizations andwe look forward to sharing updates on their proposed projects in our next report. 

National Pet Food Bank Survey: A Clearer Picture of Need 

In addition to the grant cycle, we’ve also launched our annual National Pet Food Bank Survey—a vital tool that helps us collect up-to-date information from organizations providing pet food support across Canada. 

This data will allow us to: 

• strengthen our reach into underserved communities 

• improve how and where services are delivered 

• make smarter, evidence-based decisions about future funding and program growth 

Your Impact in Action 

Thank you for being part of a national movement that honours the bond between people and their pets. Together, we’re ensuring that no pet—and no family—is left behind.
