October 17, 2024 // Franchising.com // Livonia, Mich. – In the wake of Hurricane Helene, Pet Supplies Plus made a substantial donation to non-profit The Rewritten Story Foundation. With the immense impact natural disasters can have on displacing animals and straining resources, this donation will help ensure that pets and their families receive necessary support during recovery and rebuilding efforts.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
“As a business that prioritizes community engagement and connection, we feel a strong responsibility to support the communities we operate in during times of need,” said Chris Rowland, CEO of Pet Supplies Plus. “We’re honored to support The Rewritten Story Foundation to provide some relief to families and animals impacted by Hurricane Helene. Together, we hope to make a positive impact and help these communities recover and rebuild.”
The non-profit organization focuses on empowering communities and providing support in times of crisis. Its team of volunteers will travel to areas that are impacted a crisis to offer support, donate resources, and more. The donation from Pet Supplies Plus was dispersed throughout communities in Georgia and North Carolina.
“We believe in the power of community and the importance of lending a helping hand where it’s needed most,” said Tracy Story, Founder of The Rewritten Story Foundation. “Recently, our team traveled to Georgia and North Carolina to aid communities affected by Hurricane Helene. Thanks to the generous donation from Pet Supplies Plus, we were able to provide essential pet supplies to families and shelters in need, helping them care for their beloved animals during this difficult time.”
Pet Supplies Plus is committed to supporting hurricane relief efforts well beyond its initial donation. The brand is actively providing direct assistance to team members affected by the disaster. Locations in Boone, NC, are collecting donations that will be distributed to local organizations, enabling neighbors to contribute essential supplies and resources. In Purcellville, donations were air-dropped by local pilots to reach otherwise inaccessible areas, while the Cajun Navy transported contributions from Columbia, SC, directly to those in need.
