What We DoThough their beloved pets, we help people in crisis!No one should have to choose between feeding their pets or feeding themselves. Empty Bowl Pet Food Pantry helps pet owners facing financial challenges keep the promise they made to their pets to love and care for them forever.Our attention is to special needs groups and gap service areas such as the "new homeless" (lost job or home), the disabled, veterans, seniors and those using assistance/therapy animals.We are a service provider though coalitions such as Arizona Veterans Stand Down, United Way's Project Connect, Hopefest in Phoenix, Prescott and Tucson as well as partners with numerous agency's around Arizona to give pet food/items with their services because people - especially seniors and veterans, will ask for help for their pets, but not for themselves. When we help people return to sustainability, we help the pets long term!We also teach the next generation the right way to care for pets and the humane treatment of animals; that it's not ok to abuse, neglect, starve, abandon or leave pets locked in a foreclosed home or without food or shelter.We go into schools, create afterschool programs, do food drives, and get students, families and groups involved in giving back to their community.,Looking for student interns that are wanting to design a project for this semester in the Area of (pick one) Social Service, Disaster-Crisis, Veterans, Adminsitration, or Education.In addition to gaining great experience to complete your classroom learning, an internship this is designed by YOU show how you are able to see a need and meet it in the real world, allow you to beef up your portfolio or resume and make valuable industry contacts that can be essential to landing the ideal job upon graduation.
