Who We Give To

** Thank you to all our customers in 2024!!   At the end of December we were able to send a total of $2106 to our three chosen charities!  This represents 50% of our gross sales (excluding sales tax) this year.  

In the past four years, we have donated over $8400 to Vermont organizations.

The Hardwick Area Food Pantry -- with three sites in Hardwick, Albany and Craftsbury -- works to "build community resilience through access to quality food for everyone."  It collaborates with other organizations in the area to creatively provide food resources and increase food independence.  Click here for their website.

PAWSitive Pantry works with the Vermont Foodbank provide pet food to food shelves throughout the state, allowing many pet owners to continue to feed and keep their beloved family members.  It provides approximately 4,500 dog and 8,100 cat meals per month to families in Vermont.  Click here for their website.   

In 2023, because of the terrible flooding in Vermont that summer, we added the Vermont Disaster Animal Response Team to our charitable giving.  Their mission is to "strengthen and support the state’s capacity to respond to animal needs in the event of a disaster.....[providing] vital resources and advice to pet owners, animal-related businesses and non-profits, local communities, and state agencies in this area.  Click here for their website.
